“30203” only specifies the type and size of the bearing; there should be additional markings on the bearing to indicate tolerance or class, as well as special features like seals, etc. Sometimes those markings are hard to find or see, but if you have the old bearings removed a bearing supply house should be able to decode and match. I seem to remember the OEM bearings having an “X” designator, which would indicate corrosion-resistant steel used for the bearing—but I don’t have an old bearing here to verify that. A very brief explanation of class and other designators can be found here.
Last time I checked on these at my local bearing house they could not supply a bearing with matching designations, so I ended up ordering through my dealer. Ordered on a Tuesday, shipped from BMW’s USA warehouse and arrived for me to pick up on Friday of that same week.
