I need to replace my garage door rollers and the only place I found that carries them is Home Depot. $8 for a pair of 10-ball bearing steel rollers.
I found these for less on ebay, but also some heavy duty nylon 11-ball bearings.
The nylon ones are supposed to be a lot quieter. I wouldn't expect them to last as long as steel, but I might give them a shot if they can last a few years.
Anybody has experience with nylon rollers ?

I have them on my door. Seem to work fine. As for lasting a long time, I would suspect they will outlive the door.
Go to a garage door shop, or call someone there and ask for the parts department. They should have them in stock. I have seen them a Rona.
