Wheel bearings are one of the most crucial components of a car's suspension. They are usually located in the hub or even the brake drum or rotor itself. Wheel bearings allow the wheel to rotate freely as the car travels down the road. Most cars have an inner and an outer bearing on each wheel. Problems with wheel bearings arise from wear, which can be caused by a variety of factors. Symptoms of a bad bearing are noisy rubbing as the car is driven and that usually gets louder as speeds increase. If you are having these issues, be sure to replace them today.
