I'd do springs next. If still not happy, do sways (archive)

I've got a 97 m3 with koni single adj. with stock springs, and an x-brace. Currently I'm running the fronts at 2 turns and the rear at about 3/4 turn. I've got my pressures at 34/32. I'm thinking of upgrading for a more controlled ride and flatter cornering and I wondering what the best move would be. Are the H&r sports or a set of Ground Control Coilover systems a good move. Or should I get some sways and play more with my shock settings? And finally, am I trying to do too much with my stock springs with the konis? I'm concerned about the ride quality of upgrading springs because at times my ride with the stock springs is a bit choppy, so going with a higher spring rate may be a step in the wrong direction. Or maybe new springs with be a better match for the konis and things wil smooth ou?
Sorry for the long post.
thanks in advance,
rob
