Grease the Wheel Bearings?

Searched...couldn't come up with anything.

I'll be doing my front brake pads and rotors tomorrow. Should I try and pull the bearings and grease them while I'm at it?

I haven't seen any discussions on the topic and the procedure isn't covered in my Haynes manual. This leads me to believe it's either not necessary or is such a PITA that it's not a routinely practiced procedure in our cars.

the bearings are sealed, therefore do not need to be greased...

Thanks, I figured it must be something like that.

I'll check for hub play, but assuming I don't find any, just press with the brake job.
