I just replaced my airbag wheel with M Tech 2 on my convertible. I used 4 washers behind the nut to get it to work. It seems the wheel is cocked to the left a bit. I have heard of this before but was wondering if it's an airbag car thing or what? The M tech 2 in my 88 M3 seems fine but its a non airbag car.

I used an extra spacer,not washers and it fit great. -
Please lead me to the spacers you speak of...Originally posted by tomkate28 View Post@IRON-E30 aka Edwin:DComment

it is the regular spacer that is on the air bag wheel already. you can see it in the parts breakdown of realoem.
just order one from the dealer or blunt. IIRC it was around $10.seien Sie größer, als Sie erscheinen

Its the spacer behind steering wheel on all e30s,i grabbed a few extras at picknpull. Part # 32311120260Comment

you could do that too, but around here at most of the PNP's the keys are gone so the steering wheel locks are stuck so you can't get the wheel off. i have had to leave several nice MT-1 wheels behind because of this.
you also may need to pull out 2 plastic contact pegs/springs to stop a rubbing/squeeking noise after you do it too.
if you search, there are a couple of threads that show you where they are so you can just pull them when you switch the wheels.seien Sie größer, als Sie erscheinen
