E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted February 11, 2015 I'm pretty sure you need more parts than just the E30 M3 hubs to change over to the 5-stud pattern. Aren't the spindle and bearing sizes different as well? Hence, the usual method of using E36 struts and E36 Compact trailing arms to make the 5-stud swap.

C-130 Hercules 571 Report post Posted February 12, 2015 Rear wheel bearing same as e30. Front ones are e28 (535) but you have to swap ABS ring. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted February 13, 2015 Or any hubs to convert to 5 stud Someone on here had a e36 ti rearend for dirt cheap, that'll get the back-end done easy as pie. Front-end, the most cost effective was is to use E36 parts also. Bimmerworld has E36 M3 (+96) spindles/kingpins for $40us each not that long ago, but you'll still need the hub (integral with the wheel bearings) and brakes etc... And the (+96) M3 control arms.
