the bearings look normal, just make sure you have the correct size bearings FROM HONDA, otherwise they may not work correctly, there is a chart in your repair manual that will tell you how to determine the correct size bearings you should use, they are color coded. Using aftermarket bearings from advance auto or autozone, or pep boys are only 1 size, where honda has 5 or 6 different size standard bearings all different colors, all different thicknesses.
