It depends on the supplier, and whether you verify the matched pair.

Thankfully Detroit metro area still has massive infrastructure supporting manufacturing = many bearing companies are local here, (selling to the public).

I replaced both frt hub bearings without new races ,the outcome was ok on drivers side ,but passengers I have a noticeable hum that comes and goes every 4 seconds at 60mph ,after a week the sound is mostly gone ,may go in and check out the sleeve on the bearings ,new races are the way to go.
