So i did my research before buying the front hubs for my e30. Went to autozone since from the searches i did it seemed that the general consensus was that moog and durast have FAG bearing pressed in. Long story short i ordered the MOOG because of it's 3 yr warranty. Pick them up today. Box says FEDERAL MOGUL so good so far. Turn the box over "MADE IN CHINA" crap! Now i'm debating wheter i should return them and spend the extra 80$ and buy FAG's, or install them and see what happens, if they fail well the 3 yr warranty will come in handy. Looking for advice r3vr's. Anyone here running this crappier version of the bearings? Who you guys say? Thanks!

I've used FAG bearings on mine - I did both sides, about 6 months apart - no problems from them. One was a "new" one I got from my parts supplier, so probably recently manufactured. The other was an older one. The first one I did was driver's side at 265K km and the passenger side just shy of 308K km.
One thing I do before I put the dust cap on, I put extra wheel bearing grease in it in the area under the cap.Estoguy

The area inside the cap. The side that faces out towards you. I squeezed a line around the inside there, as you can see the bearings a bit.
