New trailing arm bushes are very soft?

I've bought a new set of bushes for my rear trailing arms and they seem very very soft compared to the originals? Is it worth returning them and looking for something else?
I trust they are fine as it's DMGRS but they are incredibly soft?

Hello Tom, if I were in your position, I'd contact Mat at DMGRS and ask himabout your concerns. He must sell lots of these bushes and will know about the difference. Maybe the old ones have hardened over the years>
