I bought mine at www.acerracing.com

The most durable material I've used was tungsten carbide. I've tried the silicon carbide ball, but they seem to slip more often, which is kind of undesirable. I've used the tungsten carbide for both the diff balls and thrust bearings with great results.

Acer racing Ceramic Nitride diff balls are 22 times more efficient than steel.

At 79% lighter than Tungsten Carbide yet even stronger than tungsten carbide, these Grade 5 diamond polished balls provide the absolute lowest in rotational mass for awesome acceleration
