Are these wheel bearings damaged?
Hey everyone,
Getting ready to replace the front wheel bearings and hub on my 2017 SS. They arrived with slight dents/gouges on the back. Trying to decide if I should go through the hassle of exchanging them. Would this affect performance or safety at all?

I had a slight dent on the side and I was in a time crunch so I used them. Don’t think they had any issues but I got rid of the car shortly. Rock auto had sent me one correct one and one incorrect one so I did not want to return a “correct” one over the small dent since I had already had to return the one that wasn’t right plus didn’t have time.

It's just a dust cover. It will be fine.

Am I crazy or is this not right? Every video I've watched on the subject, the bearings are pretty much silent. Video here: https://youtube.com/shorts/gWMOWMaos...dXyd0aWqqSkW8y Thanks for everyone's help!

Just swapped both my rear at the end of March and just did the parent's Nissan a few weeks ago. Neither of them make that kind of noise.
Here's what I used. Paid like $150 for two of them. https://www.ebay.com/itm/235231232660

Thanks…these ones are from GM (part 13552403 for the fronts) so not sure what’s going on here. That’s a similar price to what I paid too.

Swapped mine on my SS last year. I ordered Timken, because OEM wasn't available on rockauto. Paid like 110$ for 1x. They made a similar noise.
