I have seen people show up at the track with these parts on their car and after two or three encounters with the wall, they are done. I still have the original C hubs on my car and it was my first RC race car. Been racing it every weekend for about a year now. That's hard to beat. I do recommend the Tamiya carbon knuckles though (the part that holds the bearings that the axles go through) for the front and rear. They hold the king pins and ball studs much better.
