Before you change out the stock springs, take a look at this thread. I spent a lot of time considering suspension options with my E92: generally speaking going with any kind of "drop" with springs results in unpredictable handling, loss of EDC functionality and very poor ride quality. Dinan "\gets away with it by modifying the stock bump stop, which on the M3 acts as a helper spring and is actually an active part of the suspension.

There are ways to make lowering springs work, but there are things to modify and consider before changing out the springs. Here's another thread that might be helpful too. Folks who want a sport suspension like the KWv3s, but again EDC is lost and the ride suffers IIRC. The stock suspension, while looking a bit SUVish, is damn good and hard to improve upon.
