Some food for thought, I'm not sure I would worry about the size/strength of the bearing in MY 06-08 cars. The 6305 bearing in those cars is a monster compared to the single row 6204 in MY 01-05 cars. Here are some comparative pictures I just took. In these pictures the 6305 is just a standard SKF steel bearing. The 6204 is a ceramic hybrid bearing but it's the same size as the OEM steel 6204 bearing.




The 6204 is actually smaller overall than the inside of the outer race of the 6305!
