Default Bearings for scx10

Hey guys, looking to put new bearings though my scx10, but the question is. Is it worth buying expensive bearings for these knowing it will be covered in mud and dirt. Drowned into creeks and poorly maintained?

Personally I don't think the expensive ones are worth it. I get my bearings at avidrc.com they are very good and great price, try the revolutions, only a buck each. I never feel bad throwing away bearings for new ones when they are only a buck a piece! In my opinion the expensive ones are for people who are gonna clean and maintain their bearings, whereas I am lazy and just wanna replace it with something good but cheap. Avidrc.com all the way

I get replacement bearings from RPP. They are rubber sealed and are a little under a buck a piece.
