uprated wheel bearings? - HDIkyle - 12-09-2012
Wanting to see if anyone has ever looked into uprated wheel bearings. The reason I ask is I will be running very low offset wheels on big spacers and don't want to be changing wheel bearings every 6 months (already destroyed one). Going to try a bearing place near me I am going to call down and ask them but I'd need an original bearing for dimensions

For the TU's there's a lathe class bearing* which is a straight fit, when I was ordering those the bloke told me there was one that matched the XU sizes too, but I've looked since then and I haven't found any that match yet.
*Double zero class in the old machine ratings, or class 5/ABEC 5 in new money.
