Get your steering knuckles machined to take VW bearings, and hubs which haven't been turned down making them shear.

Most aren't machined properly, sharp corner instead of a radius etc, and super cheap Chinese crap hubs.
But machining the knuckle is a much better way.

It's more down to how you drive, I've had M-Tech ones shear, which are the same as the LMF ones. It's your risk.

only cost me £60 to get my steering knuckles machined, much better way to do it than so called motor sport hubs. I was forever changing bearings and hubs before doing this. always used mtech hubs.
do it right, do it once!
