bottom line.........use at least 'high temp wheel bearing grease for disc brakes'. going up from there, use.............. the various synthetic greases. I like Prolong myself...... But it's far more about careful workmanship than it is about how great the grease is, as long as you use basically good stuff. And if a synthetic like those mentioned shows sup .........then use that, but lacking that, you'll be just fine as long as it's a quality brand of high temp wheel bearing grease.
