Default Re:Wheel bearings throwing grease

Mike -

Yup, that's pretty much what I am seeing. Little splats of grease all around the painted part of the wheel, and radial greasy lines/tracks from the center toward the edge all around. I have the same thing on both wheels (now that I got the original giant clot of grease out of there). In your photo, it looks like grease is escaping from the seam at the base of the silver SureLube housing. Same place on mine - the Sure Lube and EZ Lube are pretty similar.

I wouldn't be too disturbed about it, except that it is new - I haven't seen this before.

Still waiting for something helpful from Dexter Axle ...
