I'd been skating for awhile and it time to come for a change in wheels, I looked on eBay and bought Spitfire rippers, I was pumped when I got them today.

The board I had bought ages ago had never been altered so along with the crappy trucks were the crappy wheels, I take off the old wheels, and pop out the bearings, as I try to put them on my new wheels the bearing are too big :icon_mad:

Do I have to buy new bearings, and if so how can I make sure they'll fit on my new wheels?

Iskatezero is probably right. Unless you have some weird foreign bearings. What kind do you have?
