Correct putting the dinan springs on the cp should meet your needs. It's also one of the only dinan products that's reasonably priced .

Does Dinan sell springs only or you mean with coilovers?

Same same. The coilovers are/replace the springs.

Make sure the shop adjust the hight to your liking (or make sure they keep same CP hight) and that they do an alignment after the install of the coil overs.

After replacing the CP spring to non-CP one, this issue is solved.
Would you change the dampers also or there is no need for it anymore?
Have you driven non-cp car before? What would you opt for if you were to purchase again an M5?
I didn't change the damper. The price of non-CP spring is around 1K without installation.

I only drove non-CP on a track for a day. So I cannot compare CP to non CP accurately.
