Cheap Front Wheel Hubs?

[Potterman at parts4vws.com (Mike Potter)]

Yes, they do fail if you drive them hard. I have to change mine out in my
Race car every year(along with the bearing) I've tried those cheapy ones &
sometimes they don't even sit right once you press them in. So all I will
sell/use anymore is the Febi/Bilstein units.

pricey choice but I'd like my wheel to stay on @ 110 pulling 1.5G's through
a corner thank you very much ;-)

I've been told that front wheel hubs can fail if you drive your car
consistently hard, like doing track days (or being Anson!).
Germanautoparts has them for $30 and I would consider them to be reputable
and knowledgeable and carry quality products..
I'd spend the extra $40.
