    E36 Wheel hub sizes M3 vs 325

    I'm finding conflicting info on the wheel hub specs for this need. We have a 328is that's been converted to an M# basically (drivetrain, suspension, etc) and I'm pretty sure it has M3 hubs, but can't seem to find the difference when I go to order.

    I've seen some listed specs someone assembled that suggest the offset is different. Any of you find folks know the answer or have part#?

    Any help much appreciated!

    The wheels themselves have the same hub bore of 72.56.

    If you're referring to the actual hub size itself on the spindle, i do not know specifics

    According to the 'will it fit my car' section on FCP's listing for a front hub/bearing it fits from 318 to me3 through 1999. Including some e46 models. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...57024f#fitment

    E36 hubs are the same. The difference is in the kingpin on the front. It has brackets for larger calipers.

    I would get a high quality oem brand like FAG. The cheaper ones frequently fall apart during installation
