Wouldn't be easier to look behind the wheel?

Default You are showing a "1BM" option code which is......

....the suspension code for "Europe". If you had self-leveling, it would be "1BN".

Default Re: Yes sorry not adjustable- air is 1BN

so what are my options now? a whole h&amp;r setup? is that possible with the w12... the engine is heavier... can i get heavier duty shocks for the front with the h&amp;r kit, i will figure out something cause it just has to be done, and it is also hard to believe that the car just sits that high stock...no adjustments somewhere? i git in touch with the intrax group in holland and they sid they can build me a system 1 shock at a time and it will cost around 2500 euros...seems a bit steep (of course)...and of course i am sure there are not many people modding the w12's......any help would be great, thanks, kk

Default Shock is just a damper-the spring matters way more as the whole weight

of the car sits on them-see my reply in above post
