My ebay hubs have this same wobble problem. I bought them for $300 over a year ago. I installed nismo studs on the rears, was planning on replacing the fronts, but... one year later they're still holding up.

I replaced the front bearings so far because they developed some play, but I was expecting to do this anyway, since I heard even the Ichiba bearings were trash.

Honestly if I were to do it again I'd buy oem rears from an s14 and just buy the front conversions and stick new bearings and studs in them right away. Maybe get them machined to make sure they're flat, the wobble sucks..

Think of it this way: when ever someone mentions aftermarket hubs, the first question is "how long do they last" or "are they quality". You
never hear that about oem hubs. If they have lasted 10+ years, without failure, why not?

Sorry to dig this up again but whats the deal with it being $641.24 for the full kit W/O abs versus $341.30 to piece together the front hubs W/O abs, the rear hubs, and the hub barring? Is there something im missing? front barrings are already pressed in so do they not include the lugs or is it something else?

Ebay is just a site sellers use.....there is no such thing as eBay product! There is a big difference,
EBay has nothing to do with the quality of a product, that is all up to the sellers and companies that sell their product on EBAY..... why do people still think eBay makes everything?? That's like saying oh I bought a "craigslist Nissan"....its a Nissan not a craigslist brand........
People seize to amaze me.....I guess common sense is way out the fucking window on zilvia

iv had the meiji hubs for over 3 years. over around 30k miles. one front bearing is starting to go(has a little play). overall pretty good for the price. I also bought the when it said in the description it uses OEM Bearings. don't know if its true but I got my money out of them for shure.
p.s. the studs are super short so get extended studs for them.
they use s14 knurl diameter.

I made a thread a few years ago about them. most people were happy with them.

im sure im late to the party,.. but if it isnt OEM, plan on wheel bearing going to shit.
