Jut wondering if anyone else has had wheel bearings go on their ride so soon. My tires are still pretty new and yes I do have 19's and 20's on her but they really haven't been on there so long that they would have killed the bearings so soon.

Looking to the forum for thoughts, comments, suggestions....

Seems a bit early to have that trouble but you never know.
I thought I had a front bearing gone in my 300 last fall, I even got the hub assembly to put on. I put on my winter tires and the noise went.
The tire looked OK no obvious problem, but that was what it was, an interior failure of some kind.
