Document Showing Stock (Non-Lowered) MP HAS Heights?

Does anyone have a document or any information as to what BMW's "standard" or stock street heights are for the MP HAS?

I am going to be switching from my summer setup (20" 666M wheels) to my winter 18" wheels (640M) - so I want to go from the recommended lowered heights for the 20" wheels to the recommended non-lowered heights for 18" wheels (and make sure I have a little more ground clearance for the winter).

Thank you in advance for any replies!

If I understand you correctly, I think what you are asking for is in the first post a few threads down.

Be forewarned...
Do the REARS first, since they can be a royal fr!ggin b!tch to adjust. The top spring seat is known to spin when trying to turn the adjuster nut with the spanner. I have a steel screw installed to hold the seat up in the chassis, but getting the spanner in there is still crazy tight and difficult.
