No two wheel hubs are quite the same across different vehicles, so getting the specifics right matters when you buy used, second hand or a replacement. Answer a few quick questions below and breakers will only quote if they have the exact matching part in stock:
No – the E36 M3 ran from 1992 to 1999 and the E46 M3 from 2001 to 2006, and these are entirely different generations with different suspension geometry, hub carriers, and bearing sizes, so the hubs are not interchangeable. Always source a hub from the correct generation for your car.
The E46 M3 ran as a single generation from 2001 to 2006 without a structural mid-life platform change, so hubs from across that range are generally considered the same part. However, BMW did introduce some running changes during production, so confirm the exact part number with the breaker against your registration to be sure.
No – the E90/E92/E93 M3 (2007–2013) and the F80 M3 (2014–2018) are separate generations with fundamentally different rear subframes, hub designs, and bearing arrangements, so the parts do not cross over. Source a hub that matches your specific generation.
Yes, it matters significantly – the E92 M3 uses a unique hub and upright assembly developed around its larger brakes and different suspension geometry, so it is not the same as the hub fitted to a standard E92 3 Series. Always specify M3 when asking a breaker for this part.
Yes – nearside (NS, left) and offside (OS, right) hubs are handed parts on the M3, so always tell the breaker which side you need when requesting a quote. Fitting the wrong side will mean the wheel bearing and ABS reluctor ring face the incorrect direction.
The CSL was a lightweight homologation variant of the E46 M3 and shared the same basic hub and upright design as the standard E46 M3, so fitment is generally considered the same. That said, the CSL received specific brake and suspension componentry, so confirm against your registration with the breaker before purchasing to rule out any running differences.
