Yes. You can use any springs you like with DHP.
Replacing the shocks with aftermarket units is what causes extra grief, as they don't have the electronic valves for the DHP system to use.
Be mindful that lowering springs WILL accelerate the wear on your stock shocks. The lower the spring, the stiffer the spring, the harder it will be on your stock shocks. Traditionally, BMW shocks tend to wear quicker than others.
What car year and model do you have? How many miles? More than 50k miles? Those DHP shocks may have already started their downward decline and springs that are too aggressive can destroy them in short order. These shocks are very expensive too, $800+ each. BMW charges $2200 to install them, on top of that.
A question for you... Is your car LCI or preLCi? Does the front of your car dip down when you lightly brake to a stop? Like at stop signs or pulling into a parking spot?
