Used wheel hubs vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The BMW i5 (G60) launched in the UK in 2023 as the electric version of the 5 Series eighth generation, so all current used examples sit within this single generation with no facelift boundary yet established. Because the i5 is a relatively new model, the pool of used wheel hubs from breakers is still limited but growing. Always quote your exact registration when contacting a breaker to confirm the precise build date of the donor car.
No — the i5 is built on the G60 platform, which is a different generation to the G30/G31 fifth-generation 5 Series (2017–2023), and the geometry, bearing carriers and brake architecture differ between them. Do not assume cross-generation fitment even though both share the 5 Series name. Confirm with the breaker that the part comes from a G60 i5 donor car matching your registration.
Engine (motor) output and drivetrain layout can affect hub and bearing sizing, particularly where larger brakes are specced on more powerful variants like the M60 xDrive, so you should not assume the hub from an eDrive40 will be a straight swap onto an M60 or vice versa. Trim level names such as eDrive40, xDrive40 or M60 reflect meaningful mechanical differences on the i5, not just cosmetic spec. Confirm the exact variant and drivetrain of the donor vehicle with the breaker against your own registration before purchasing.
Yes, side matters: always specify nearside (NS, passenger side) or offside (OS, driver side) when requesting a quote, as the hub assemblies are handed and are not interchangeable left to right. Double-check which corner you need before contacting the breaker to avoid delays.
Cosmetic trim grades alone do not affect hub fitment; what matters is the drivetrain (rear-wheel drive vs all-wheel drive xDrive) and motor output, not whether the car has M Sport styling packs or upgraded interior finishes. Be aware that M Sport or other appearance packs may come with different wheel sizes or brake caliper colours, but the underlying hub specification is driven by powertrain, not trim name. Confirm the drivetrain and output of the donor car with the breaker against your registration to be certain.
The i5 G60 has been on sale since 2023 and no facelift has been publicly confirmed at this stage, so cars across the 2023–2025 period are all within the same generation. However, BMW can introduce running changes to components like hubs and bearings mid-production without a formal facelift announcement, so fitment across different build dates cannot be guaranteed on that basis alone. Ask the breaker to check the part number from the donor car against your registration before you commit.
