    Rear wheel bearings - 09 XB9SX

    So I took off my rear wheel in order to put on a new tire. I used my No Mar changer that I just picked up and it worked great. After mounting the tire I needed to balance the wheel. I begin to look and feel of the bearings and they seem extremely tight and stiff. I can barely turn them with my fingers. I'm guessing it's time to put in a couple of bearings also. Any recommendations on brand...OEM or aftermarket? Any tips on removing these? With only 7700 miles, should these bearings be bad? Is this normal wear pattern for XB's?
