Did the alpina cars have different suspension to say the 325i sport or was it the same?

Thanks

Alpina C2 2.7's used Bilstein B8 shocks valved to their specification and 25-30mm springs made by eibach to their specification.

A adjustable rear anti roll bar was an option as well.

It was notoriously stiff and also caused stress fractures on some cars in the front inner wings, more common in the UK because of our dog shit roads.

325i Sports used Mtechnic suspension which comprised of 15mm lower springs and bilstein B6 shocks up to '88 and yellow BOGE shocks after.
