Fitment: Fits selected BMW models. Confirm exact fitment before ordering.
Product Description
This Arrowhead front wheel hub with integrated bearing is designed specifically for BMW vehicles and forms a crucial part of the steering, suspension, and axle system. Featuring a robust 139mm diameter and 5 mounting holes, it ensures secure attachment and smooth wheel rotation on the front axle. This assembly is essential for supporting your vehicle’s weight and allowing the wheels to turn freely while maintaining proper alignment.
Fitment is suitable for select BMW models, particularly those requiring a 139mm front wheel hub with a 5-hole configuration. Please confirm your BMW’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to guarantee compatibility, as incorrect fitment can affect safety and performance.
Common symptoms of a worn or failing wheel hub bearing include humming or grinding noises from the wheel area, excessive play in the wheel, uneven tyre wear, vibration through the steering wheel, and ABS warning lights. You may also notice difficulty steering or a pulling sensation to one side.
Replace the wheel hub assembly if you notice any of these symptoms or during routine suspension and brake servicing. Timely replacement helps maintain optimal handling, tyre life, and braking performance, especially on South African roads.
