Default Best Brand for Parts? - Wheel Bearings

I'm looking to purchase some wheel bearings for the D3 S8, as I suspect I cooked out whilst taking out the pinch bolt recently, but there are a ton of different brands out there to choose from, so looking at what people consider a good brand to opt for.

The ones that I've been looking at so far have been Febi, Meyle, SKF and FAG, with prices +/- a couple of pounds. There are others, but the prices are about 50% of the others, so avoiding them.
