Do they fit, is it necessary to relubricate them, do they last?

Even the OEM bearings can last if cleaned and regreased on a regular basis. The most important part (well, second after proper torque) is to change the inboard seal every 50,000 miles or so. It is a poor design and lets all kinds of road crap into the bearing when it wears away. Part number is 28015AA080.
I wouldn't leave any bearing in place for life without cleaning/regreasing it.
