I saw the Sebro pulleys. They get good reviews. I chose to service the bearings because as easy as it is to part with $275 for pulleys/belt I just couldn't get past how incredibly inexpensive are the bearings. The pulley part itself... near indestructable. I figured if it doesn't work I'll just buy the new pulleys. That said...
I further was inspired to service those bearings to mitigate the vehicle operating expenses. Again, it's easy to throw money at the cars... but the challenge is in keeping those operating expenses low. More bragging rights.
I'll know when those pulleys need to be replaced. lol.
