FRont Wheel Hub / Bearing brand or source recommendation?

I may be putting on some new front hubs once the temps warm up a bit. Does anyone have a brand our source for good hubs or are they all about equal?

I'm an avid amazon guy so thats usually a preference.

They're not all the same. You get what you pay for applies here. Koyo and Moog are available on Amazon.

Edit 1: Genuine OEM on Amazon >

Amazon.com: Lexus 43550-50011, Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly: Automotive

Edit 2: Timken also makes a good bearing.

I recall when I did my front with a Lexus part it was stamped the same numbers as the Autozone part just a different box

When I changed mine, OEM or OEM equivalent hubs were EXTREMELY over priced in my opinion and since they were hard to replace, I chose to go with ROCKAUTO and see what happens. My rear hub cost $64.00 (Moog and Timken were $185.00) I installed it about a 13 months and 25,000 + miles ago and so far so good.
