As far as I know the bearings are the problem in those aftermarket dealios.
Or dont, its your decision.
I dont really see how a hub could fail.. the bearing obviously could. if i were going to buy these i would just run them with the noname bearings till/when they get dead, then just press in my old oem ones..

hell, even my stock bearings were quieter than the ichiba trash, and they have like 200k+ on them

i can't complain though, i knew what i was buying
Yeah I can get attains here in Japan but they are pricey.

Yeah I have more faith in the hub than the wheel studs or bearing. Seems like there are enough people running aftermarket hubs with no problems except the bearings. I'm going to run mine until the bearings go and replace them with oem goodness
