I have a lowered beetle and I think the camber is causing blown bearings due to lack of grease from the slant. Is there a sealed bearing option i can use?

Yes, I think the bearing # for stock is 608. They make a sealed bearing for it. Whatever the number, just add 2RS to it for the sealed bearing #
