Please don't spread misinformation. This topic has been beaten to death in 6000 threads

Warming the car properly is not correlated to abnormal RB wear. Evidently this is not good for the car, but it is not the reason bearings come out looking like WW3 went through

The aluminum bearings also have no effect on RB wear. They also have insufficient clearance just like the pre-2010 ones
