I ended up ordering the Teflonsonic bearings from Acer bearing. I couldn't justify paying more for the bearings than I payed for the entire car.
Once I get my electric car working just the way I want it, then maybe I will look into balancing the wheels/tires and see if it helps.
For an 1/8 scale I can easily see the benefit of the ceramic bearings. I MAY purchase an 1/8 On-Road later this year, but I'm still undecided. Between my Sons and myself we own 7 cars/trucks already and I'm the mechanic (just like Pops Racer) for all of them.
