Hi, I'm looking at a MTech II wheel from an E36 for sale, the guy selling has said it won't fit an E30, but I thought they were the same fitment?? Any help? Cheers.

Sorry, but he's correct. E36 is a different fitment. E34 5 series is the same, but I believe the wheel is larger in diameter.

I don't know what sort of money this one was going for, but they often go for more on eBay than you can get a brand new one. Cooks Ferry sell them for Ԛ£165 + VAT brand new.

Thanks for that. Trouble is, I'm in New Zealand and shipping kills it. BMW here want 334 pounds for it! By the time I get anything here, it's moonbeams in price, which is why I still don't have a strut brace. . . . . Cheers anyway.
