when i swapped my s14 from 4- to 5-lug i bought new oem hubs and bearings from superior. I had the rear hubs pressed in to the bearings for a small fee at a local machine shop. so having them pressed in isn't that bad.
think about it, your car has at least 80-90k miles on it, and probably alot more. depending on how it was driven, thats a lot of use on those bearings. i'd say better be safe than sorry and get new bearings.
