Although I have never personally done this I've heard about people drilling holes in the rubber and injecting silicone specifically the silicone used to seal up a windshield to stiffen them up. Search around as apparently its an old DSMer trick.

Ralliart is rubber compound & stronger then oem, enough for high hp applications & with a slight increase in vibration inside. Don't get polyurethane that will be awful with the harsh vibration & effects the cv joints, etc!

I drilled holes in mine and filled with liquid urethane from McMaster Carr... they have held up pretty well for 2 years now...
