Title: Momo wheel hub
Post by: Choking Hazard on November 18, 2006, 12:31:01 AM

Is there a Momo wsteering wheel adapter (hub) for our cars?  Surfing for the answer led me to Momo's site where the 91 318is is conspicuously absent.  325 is listed though.  Is the steering wheel spline the same?

I've found the same problem too.  I've got a Momo wheel in the trunk waiting to be installed someday.  Any help here would be great.
Dan.

I have a momo wheel and hub on my 318is. You will need to go to a hardware store or something and get a few washers. It really isn't hard to put a diff wheel on a airbag car ;)
 
ohh and yes you just need the e30 hub, there isn't a 318 one

yea, just get an adapter for a 84-89 E30.  You will need a spacer between the hub and the nut because the non-airbag hub is not as thick as the airbag one.

I made a spacer out of alumunum.  IIRC it was 3/4" thick

Or you can buy the factory spacer from the dealer for around $5.

I've got a bunch of those spacers for the cost of postage. Let me know if anyone wants one.

I'm getting a new wheel soon, thanks, but there are 2 numbers for #4. Which is it?

EDIT: I typed in my VIN number and #4 is:

32-31-1-120-260

But if that is for the 318iS, wouldn't it be for the airbag wheel? I searched the 325's and got the same number...
