right...

i have a mk3 and the hub diameter is 57.1mm im told to bmw e30 wheels are also 57.1mm but mine seem to be bigger
they are real! and they are the ones off the e30

but why they not 57.1mm?

Yeah, E30s (not M3) are 57.1mm centre bore for sure.

I thought yours were fitted on the car already? So what's the problem?

all 4 stud e30sa are 57.1 same as vw. what it might be is these are aftermarket wheels and the spiggot rings are missing
