What rod bearing brands in the market today?

Hello Team,

Im in the process of gathering parts for my E92 S65 rod bearing replacements.

So far, BE Bearings always pop out thru google BMW forums.
I usually used ACL in all of my race cars builds, with zero issues, but saw that BE got it fix for extra 0.0010 clearance.

I can do BE Bearings, but now it is all back order/ out of stock.

Question is, is there any Rod bearings available in the market with like
BE extra 0.0010 over OEM std?



Brief history,

New to BMW with V8 E92, and planning to replace my rod bearing this Thanksgiving week coz I have week off.

10/24/18, I Acquired the 2008 E92 w/ 138,000 miles. ex-owner owner said, bearings was replaced at 40k miles ago, he got service records that he did.

When I got the car, I did oil sample analysis right away thru Black Stone(10/26/18), (waiting for the result ATM, 11/2/2018).

As I have knowledge mechanically and have access to tools and lifts, im doing it anyway coz I like doing it. I built my race cars Evo's and Nissan's in my garage.


THanks
