I thought you were still talking about the 540, but Simeon is right, for the E38 the HD is the only Bilstein (or almost any shocks at all) available.

To my knowledge Bilstein only makes HD shocks for the E38.
The spring heights you mentioned were interesting, as a 60mm. drop would be extreme, especially if you went with +2 wheels and tires.
If you intend to "track" the car, RD makes a specially valved set of shocks. I use the Bilsteins and find the ride firm yet manageable.
