KSK is a good brand also. I have found that with most parts, you get what you pay for. The people at the local bearing shop said that the bearings from Japan are better than the ones from China. Better steel, from what they said. They all have the same load rating of around 1,500lbs each. With two bearings in each perch, you could hold the car up with just one perch so the cheaper ones may work OK.
