The length of their shocks together including the variable height threading on the shock tube is a minimal couple of centimeters/ an ~inch shorter than stock. Not sure if the Bilstein RC springs are shorter (~stiffer) than stock.
So far no geometric / part info on the 1M shocks. Most likely they came from the E9XM (or else E82), any evidence on this welcomed. [  Rear shock label pictures from BMW Welt please?!? ] |
pretty sure the shocks are new for the car. They also feature aluminum housings
