I am not 100% sure but I think self leveling suspension was only available with standard suspension so even S8 with self leveling suspension will have standard front shocks and not the sport ones. This would explain why they are black as normally you would have black on standard suspension and red on sports. Compare height to another S8 and you will see if yours is 2cm higher.
