Hi guys my mate has a pair of front e30 m3 wheel hubs, my question is will they fit the 325i struts? If not why not, is it the diameter of the stub?

I have seen that link before the only part I can't get hold of is the m3 struts, will the m3 hubs go staight on to the non m3 struts if so that's the main concern

No they will NOT fit. Strut spindle size / bearing inner race are incompatible.

No, the E30 M3 front hub/bearing assembly will not fit a non-M3 strut. Different size bearings etc.jasso wrote:I have seen that link before the only part I can't get hold of is the m3 struts, will the m3 hubs go staight on to the non m3 struts if so that's the main concern

So the strut spindle on the m3's have a bigger diameter I take it? That's what I wanted to confirm.
