Default WJB Wheel Bearings Feedback?

Does anyone have experience with WJB wheel bearings? My 2006 GS300 AWD has 150k miles and the rear wheel bearings are getting very noisy.

The comparable Timken bearings are 3x the cost ($50 vs $150). I don't mind spending more for a quality product but given the year and mileage of my car, I'll only have it for another 2-3 years at most.

Appreciate any feedback!

Go with the cheaper! The rear end bearings do not have much of a strain like the front hubs.
