WJB WA512480 Assembly Bearing Reference Review

These bearings cost between a third and half the cost of OEM bearings. They were packaged well and installed painlessly on my 2012 Fiat 500. We'll see how they hold up, but so far they're smooth, quiet and good.

Haters will hate it but I hate the original bearings that come with the 500. I think they're made of toothpicks and caulking grease. Easy to swap out, works as advertised, good value, do it. Been using it for a year with no problems.

So quite difficult to write a review on this item based on long term quality. But having just installed it in my car to fix a noisy rear wheel bearing I can say with 100% certainty that the noise is gone and the car drives much better. I would fully trust this brand just based on the first results.

Very good. Mileage 20,000, good qualities. I added a lot of extra grease when I replaced the rear wheel bearings. Take care of your brakes so you don't overheat your wheel bearings. Once you burn fat, you lose a lot of life. You need a big outlet. 36mm, if I remember correctly, for the spindle nut.

My wife's 2012 Fiat 500 was making an increasing moan (it sounded like a helicopter was following it). I put the car on jack stands and let the rear wheels spin, both spinning unevenly but awkwardly. The local shop wanted about $600 for parts and labor, got them for $80 and two hours in my garage. The product looked very similar to the OEM and the noise was gone. I will update my review if/when they go bad.
