Looking to go 5 lug soon, looking for some reviews or input. Read alot that ichibas were hit and miss on thier bearings. Anyone running drop 5 lug?

I believe they all use similar bearings, i have Drop and will say the fit and finish is spot on and look better than ichiba did to me

I went with OEM for my s14 as I kept hearing good and bad on both.

Front bearings are very hard to press in. Just go with oem, it is not that much more expensive, and it WORKS. If your chassis is an S13, dont forget to use S14 lower arm ball joint (or a complete S14 lower arm and steering rack rods, as they are 8mm longer)
