I need two new C size bearings, I don’t want to spend more than about 20$ Which is the smoothest and longest spinning out of these?

CBC SPEC  
CBC Center Trac  
General Yo AIRG  
or YoYoJam Bearings  
EDIT: One Drop 10 Ball  
Mercury

P.S. I don’t really care about string centering, I don’t think it makes that big of a difference (Personal opinion) I just want the smoothest/longest spin.

Go for a 10-ball. They’re my favorite bearing and they’re super smooth/quiet/long spinning etc.

I would get one that spins, those seem to work the best. 😃

Thank you to everyone who posted, the 10 Ball seems to be the overwhelming preference, I’m listening.

Indeed, there isn’t much of a reason to get any sort of specialty bearings.
