Bilstein Shock part number?

Anyone know if these are sport or HD shocks?

They are likely Sport shocks. Those carry a B46-0975 part number.

My Bilsteins are green and carry this number:

F4-B46-0169-HD

Obvious question here, but I do have HDs, right?

Thanks!

It would make sense -

The confusing part is I have had these shocks for some time and am upgrading my t-bars - want to make sure I have the Bilstein Sports that go with my new bars -

The confusing part is my car came with "Sport Shocks" from the factory - green in color - I wanted the firmer sport shocks when I replaced my old ones and these are yellow in color.

Any Bilstein shock experts out there confirm?

Bilstein Sport Shocks (yellow) are firmer then Bilstein HD's (Greeen)? - not to be confused with green Bilstein Sport Shocks from the factory....?

Sport shocks are both firmer and slightly shorter than HD's.

Here's a photo of my shock...the "HD" may in fact be an "H0"

Steve, do you still think they're HDs or are they Sports?

nolift911, sorry for kinda taking over your thread!

On a Bilstein front insert, the numbers I have are 4305R365001Ho and 3606R365001Ho. What is the 4 digit prefix before the R stand for. And are they the same inserts?
Thanks
