F10 coilovers on F11 works?

So, after a long search, don't know if they use the same suspension, or F11 is an specific, cause i'm trying to lower the wagon and here (Spain) I've only found coilovers for F10 but no one can say if they fit on F11 too....

Do you know if they're the same? Or has the F11 an specific coilover?

Thanks.

PS: It's RWD, not xDrive

The rear suspension on the F11 is completely different to the F10.
The F11 has self leveling air suspension in the rear.

That's what I saw then, something about a problem with air bags... but, Do you know if that system can be deleted, and swapped for regular coilovers?

You can change to shorter adjustment links to get it lower in the rear.

The F11 has a similar setup to the F07. My coilovers are based off the F10 (front), while the rear setup uses adjustable links paired with custom dampers to adapt to the lower ride height without compromising ride quality. Rides as good as stock, handles WAY better.
