overhauling the front wheel, theres a small amount (.5mm, no more) of latteral movement but no vertical in the bearings they dont feel gritty or sound rumbly cant decide wether to buy new or regrease and get them through winter any opinions ?

If they're cup & cone you can just tighten them (regrease whilst you're at it maybe)

For the time and effort it takes to remove/clean/grease them, i'd probably just replace them.
