Best wheel hub assembly??

Timken without a doubt. You'll never replace it again.

Timken IS oem. Just whether or not its badged delco or Timken.

Koyo is a premium Japanese bearing. Timken bearings are sometimes outsourced (Poland, Australia). Both are high quality made to specific specifications with high quality steel. You can't really go wrong with either.
Timken hubs (like the SP500300) are way higher than many others listed on the web. Don't go too cheap.

No matter which brand front hub you choose, check the bearings for being too tight before installation. I have found this problem in several different brands, including Timken. Factory automated assembly tools are not always calibrated correctly.

A little stiffness is ok, but if the bearing "ratchets" or jerks as you turn it by hand, it is no good.

Goog or Timken, so long as it's not made in China or Japan.

This has little to do with buy American. Asian steel is generally softer than US, Canadian, or even Mexican.

If it says made in US, Canada, or Mexico, you should be good to go.

IMHO

Everywhere is softer than America...

I just changed out a SKF on a 1999 2 door Tahoe. It had 28K miles on it. It was so worn it came apart when i removed it. The roller bearings and part of the carrier fell on the floor.
