Hub bearings

Hey guys so I got new tires and recently discovered that my hub bearings might need to be replaced. Anyone have any experience with this problem?

Anyways Im in the hunt of a good porsche and bmw mechanic down here in miami, fl. so if anyone can recomend a good mechanic who wont rip me off it would be much appreciated, thanx.

Last thing, I used to buy used salvage parts from a salvage yard in LA but cant seem to find them so any help with that would also be much appreciated. Thank you!

I'd like to know the indications of bad hub bearings on the 997, just for my future knowledge. Hub bearings are probably something I'd do myself as I've changed wheel bearings on other cars. It's not a hard job if you don't mind getting dirty.

I went to replace my tires and they informed me of a noise my car was making when driven, most likely being the hub bearings as they told me.
