I do that with all of mine, in addition to filing down all of the sharp "points". If you don't have a moral issue with it, the Costelo pedals are identical to the 12's and are half the price. I have 3 pair of those, one set of 12's and one set of the Mavic ti's (12's with different graphics).
This. I swapped out the bushings for these bearings a couple of years ago. Got the bearings on amazon for less than $8 and switching took all of 5-10 minutes. No play since.
