Default Rear bearings

Hey guys I went in to the local shop today to get a alignment done because I replaced a bunch of stuff. Come to find out my rear wheel bearings are already bad and I replaced them last summer. I used quality parts too.Is there any reason why they would be bad already????

need some feedback guys

thanks

Could be lots of things. Improper installation, parts weren't as good as you thought, weird offset on your wheels, bad alignment in the rear, crappy roads, etc.

Since they only lasted a year I'm guessing the parts were crap or they weren't installed quite right.
