What do you use and why?

Anyone try the Abec 7 ones? last longer? seal better? still get gritty?

Just ordered a set of the Abec 7 ones for the inner and outer for the wheels on my Tekno 410.
I ONLY use Avids. They are cheaper and better than any other bearings I've ever used. Here is the link of the bearings you should purchase, no need to upgrade, just get the standard kit in this link http://www.avidrc.com/flexkit/?kit=524&kitname=SCT410
