Gen MB wheel bearings vs aftermarket

[Lenny63]

Hi All

The big girl needs a NSF wheel bearing - MB ones are nearly double the price of what I can get a good after market brand - question bein, is a bearing just a bearing or are the MB ones far superior ?

I don't think it really makes a difference unless your going to put taxi mileage on it

Just buy a reputable brand, they'll be fine.

Is the price from MB for the whole hub?

I know for a W211, bearings cannot be ordered separately... You have buy the whole hub assembly.

just the bearing kit
