    I saw a e30 M3 set going for sale in CL Seattle, few days ago. It was a whole set (springs and struts) for $300...search and they may still be available (no affiliation).

      There is also a set of stock E30 M3 springs on Portland cl. However, they're about the same as stock E30 springs.

          I thought the M3 rates were different, and they sit a little lower. Perhaps I am in error.

            from e30tech- front/back:
            Stock 325i*-----------------------106------------------------245
            Stock M3*-------------------------114------------------------314
            drop is less than an inch. they are a good alternative if you want a little stiffer than stock without dropping the car down a whole lot.

              Which bavauto springs did you get that they were $400 and how much do you want for them?

                  FWIW, OP, BavAuto springs are super soft.
