What are your thought on this?

Are aftermarket wheel hub assembly worst or better than OEM? The oem ones are somewhat known to fail and cost a bit more.

Do the aftermarket ones last longer?

How much do aftermarket one's cost Dennis? The one's Mazda sells now are updated from the previous years and are cheaper than some aftermarket units. Also some aftermarket units have fitment issues.

Thanks Joe,

The ones majesticblue showed me are $60~ I didn't know the ones mazda sells now are updated.

My main concern is paying for something double the cost and it being not as reliable as the aftermarket part.
