If the car is being used on the road, why change the original set-up? There is also the question of rear impact protection without the rear subframe.

The only real difference to handling & cornering will be the springs ablity to keep the tyres in contact with the road without allowing too much body roll. That depends as much on what weight is compressing the springs. I'd stick with rubber if the car carries a full load.
