I'll definitely vouch for them in RC Cars usage, but haven't used in a motor.

+1. They are good bearings and have used for a quite a long time. I have not yet tried them in the endbells in motors.

I just use a replacement bearing if I have to from the factory. Nothing special.

Using new Murfdogg Motor Works ceramic replacement bearings. Anything to help squeeze a bit more performance and lower operating resistance.
