Wheel bearings and suspension upgrades
While gathering new suspension parts etc I thought it might be a good idea to get a set of new wheel bearings too shipped over in the container.
Which ones/brand do you guys recommend buying? Other things wise to replace if I want it "as new" under the car? So far I have bought FX-3 shocks, SuperPro bushings and Spicer u-joints (incoming) as well as recently installed a new composite leaf spring from Vette Brakes. A Dewitts pro series radiator is also in place now. New 18" wheels are being built as we speak and the plan is to get a "new" car handling wise next season. Any advice and input is appreciated.IMG_20220601_154049_601.jpg Sent from my SM-G955F using ZR-1 Net Registry mobile app

Try for SKF wheel bearings if you can get them.

Always a great choice! I only use SKF for my Audis.
