not had that issue. normally when running in the wet tho my car is stripped within 24 hours or nearly any bearing will seize. daft question. did you pre oil the bearings before you put them in the car as said in the instructions or did you just chuck them in like most doi as that wouldnt of helped if u havent and could be the cause
