Just replace my OEM shocks rear and front to Bilstein B4 HD with original springs.
Bilstein B4 is for Standard suspension, my car don't have Sport package.
The problem is can seat very high, about 5 fingers gap between tires and body.
Can any one help me with some idea or what I should do

Buy my sport springs when I put Eibach on ![Stick Out Tongue](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
You can either put lower springs on like H&R or Eibach since you bought new struts/shocks already which will bring the standard suspension down 30 mm or so or put sport springs on which will be half that and less stress on the shocks since they are OE replacement.
P.S. Wrong section.
