Default height difference, u.s vs row mo30 springs

Searched but couldn't find this. How much lower would the car be with the row mo30 springs, (everything else being equal) ?
cheers David.

As I recall the ROW is 20 mm lower. I put the ROW M030 on my C4S and was very pleased.

quoted from US vs ROW paragraph in the above suspension FAQ:

"The US cars were approximately 20 mm higher in front and 10 mm higher at rear than the standard ROW (rest of world) cars. On the other hand, all US cars were approximately 30 mm higher all around than the ROW M030 equipped cars. A US car equipped with the factory M030 chassis could be retrofitted with the ROW M030 springs for a 30 mm lower ride height without having to change the shocks. "

Thx for the info guys, I just checked the car and low and behold, springs are orange and green dots, so it seems they are row mo30. sway bars are also 22 & 20 mm and looks like belgium made Bilstein with
(frt) part # 993-343-041-37 ?? anyone know if this is a hd bilstein? only had the car a few weeks, this is a pretty cool find since it did not have the 030 option code I wasn't expecting it!
