Ok well many people have probably over look at wheel bearings and all but could they really add more performance to your vehicle as causing less friction for quicker responses. Also what are the difference between roller and needle wheel bearings or whatrs the difference between regular oem and performance bearings ???

 

the difference? Longevity.

And they are overlooked because it would do nothing noticeable.

 

I had my stock front wheel bearings replaced at around 240K miles just as a preventative measure. They weren't actually bad at that time. My rear wheel bearings are still original with 270K on the car, and they're still doing fine.

So if longevity is the only difference, don't pay extra for "performance" wheel bearings. That is a rip-off, plain and simple.
