ANYONE who knows anything about C5/6 track or autocross cars knows that these wheel bearings are a MUST HAVE. If not, you're playing with fire and can see catastrophic failure from loosing brakes to even loosing a wheel. Just check out the numerous YouTube videos out there on wheel bearing failure.

With the SKF X-Tracker hub bearings, there's a gain in increased stiffness for better brake performance under high loads. Under race competitive use, you may go an entire season without replacement.  This unit is designed to provide a high stiffness during cornering, reducing piston knock-back and the need to trail brake. It's also designed for durability and to maintain preload at a sustained loading of 1.2g. All this adds to faster lap times and better driver feedback.

The X-tracker, has a double row angular contact ball bearing arrangement. The outboard row has a larger diameter and contains more balls than the inboard row. Its asymmetric design increases load carrying capacity and operational life and raises camber stiffness above that of symmetrical hub units. The flange thickness is also 1mm thicker than OE making the head of the lug stud recessed in the flange.

NOTE: 1997-08 SKF X-Tracker Hubs have a black coating on them. If they are raw, it's NOT an X-Tracker. DON'T BE FOOLED!!! This applies to 97-08 ONLY.
