Anyone have thoughts on how much money should be spent on rear wheel hubs & bearings?
Full OEM list pricing is ~$280 for just the hubs, close to another $160 for the bearings and then the associated seals and whatnot.
Then on the other end of the spectrum we can get this kit for all of $83 that includes everything we need but the seals.

On the one hand, it's a $900 car and we're operating on a microscopic budget. On the other hand, I'd rather not die on the highway on the way to an event.
