You autocrossed fairly relatively over that 60k miles, no? I'd say 60k is pretty great on 5x100 hubs!

Not bad, but I probably had more autocross runs (and 50K more miles) on the OEM bearings, and the FW105 was supposed to be an upgrade, especially since Cory repacked it with Mobil-1 Synthetic Red Grease.

In the "Nissan bearing's" defense, I have run wider tires and autocrossed on a grippier surface since it was installed.

Take it to the track more and back off of large rumble strips under load and you may only get 5-10K out of them...

Neither that post, nor this thread are "the answer" they purport to be.
