After cleaning I take a good look at the inside (best as I can) then lay them on their sides and slowly spin them. If I don't feel any clunks/bumps/grinding I lube and use them. ..........................lm

I have broken down the engine, and all the bearings still spin pretty damn good, and I can't see any reason to replace them at this point after a good cleaning and re-lubing.
