I doubt it will make any difference so will likely be selling this and moving to M Performance unless replacement springs are reasonable. Can't seem to find them online... Any ideas what an acceptable spring rate would be? Also need to verify Vorshlag plates will work with M Perf.
Well that explains things, I remember reading posts from the F80/82 guys complaining all over the place about the 230nm springs afterwards they were all ordering 'M2' 190nm springs and seemed much happier.

Like HP Auto said, we can't tell you if swapping to 190nm springs will be ok with you since it's such a personal and subjective thing. It can only ride better that's for sure. Part number is 48010-67 any dealer can probably order them or ask Ohlins usa directly

Your Vorshlag plates will not work since the M perf suspension uses OEM style springs. The only plate Ive seen that seem to work with both OEM and 60mm springs is the Millway street. I plan on replacing my Vorshlag with these during off season to remove some nvh/harshness.
