So I guess the question is how much is too much?  I repacked all my brand new bearings with some thick synthetic grease.  They are packed tight and a bit came out when putting the outter seals on.  I also removed the inned races' and put grease on the inside as well.  

So now they are a bit more stiff, or resistive to spinning than before.  They were very free spinning before, now less so but still spin.

Think I may have gone overboard?  They were barely greased new I was blown away by this.  So what do you guys think?
