Sorry to hijack - what sort of symptoms are you having? With other cars I'm used to hearing a racket on the highway as they're going bad but haven't with this one.
I had barely noticeable play and loud grinding under heavy braking when I bought the car 12k miles ago. Swapped in new OE hubs and all was fine. The grinding started coming back after the car (bearings?) warmed up about 5k miles ago. I've done pads/rotors/rebuilt the caliper since then without an effect so I'm pretty confident in ruling that stuff out.
7-12k street miles just seems too soon to be looking at them again.

The last ones I got were timken, that was a couple years ago. I've tried one through autozone or orielly's and bought a front set from amazon labeled "Detroit" brand and all those only lasted like a season. I have one on my bench I have been meaning to cut apart to see what is going on. Maybe I will go stick it in the band saw now.

Any experience with SKF on this platform? They're cheap enough and I don't think I want to roll the dice with OE again
