M5 one is 385mm
E30 tech2 is 370mm
There is also one that looks the same which is fitted to some E36's but this will not fit an E30

If its off an earlier pre-facelift e34 then it will fit straight on.j55ura wrote:hmmmm
the boss, steering lock etc is the same on the M5 and the e30 variants?
does the extra size look off? or will it work??
They are a little large but the same size as 99% of tech1 wheels.

Do the Tech 2's have blue and red stitching?
guys the one i was looking at turns out to be a 385 so ive given it a miss, real shame the guy was so genuine - but oh well, its the same size as the tech1 i got at home so its not really worth bothering.

I bought mine a half year ago, tech 2 with 385mm diameter, nice upgrade from previous tech 1.
I bought it thinking it was original fitment in E30 BUT my friend drove his 525i and I saw that his tech 2 is smaller, he told me that I am crazy LOL but we compared the sizes and were amazed with results
:
he had tech 2 from e30, mine was from E34, incredible
But I don't give a damn, wheel looks lovely and the car is ''younger'' with it.
and I have blue/red stitching...this is mine
