      No point replacing something if it's not an upgrade. Original BMW parts can GTFO.

                Good thing you're not using FAG bearings; 'cause sometimes this happens:

                      If the original BMW part lasted over 20 years, why would you NOT replace it with original BMW parts for the next 20?????

                      O.K., I work at a dealer and get a huge cut on alot of parts, but BLUNT can get a huge discount for most of you guys too.

                      only BMW original parts for me you cheap asses- unless it is something BMW doesn't make.

                        SKF is a brand, just like FAG & NMB are also brands of bearings.

                          Yes some BMW OEM parts can be a little steep for the pocket book. There are still true German parts the BMW uses as their suppliers. But as I say this ask & research there are too many Asian parts taking over the German market Beware! You
