N55 rod bearings recommendation

Greetings

Wanted to ask you guys for rod bearings recommendation, I've been considering Kings rod bearings but I don't trust their quality very much (for example, vehicular DIY spin their king rod bearing), I wanted to go for a more quality build like ACL but I haven't found any store that sells them as they all are on backorder (if someone knows of a store that would be helpful).

On FCP there's another brand called Kolbenshmidt, but I'm not sure how good they are...

I just put in std KING bearings in my n55. Friend of mine runs them on his n54 single turbo build with no problems. Can’t say if they are better or worse than the alternatives but from what I have seen they work just like any rod bearing should. Maybe someone else has more insight than me on other bearings
