Give it a little time. Let the bearings break in a little, they usually perform better after a little time.

Or if you have no patience, (like me) you can soak them in degreaser, rinse the degreaser out, then use a thin oil for lube.
Takes all of about 10 minutes to do.

for the bearing on my skateboard, it took about and hour to break them in. I wouldnt recomend soaking them because ive seen MANY bearing destroyed that way.
