So when I removed my factory speakers to replace them, I noticed they had water dripping off the magnet. Not a huge amount, but enough to have a few drops fall off. Is that normal?

The F30 front door speakers are bolted to the door itself (instead of the door panel) so the backside of the speaker is inside the door which gets wet. That is why the speaker also has a seal around it and if your new ones did not come with one then you should use some sealant to prevent water leaking into the cabin.

The backside of all door mounted speakers will get wet, as doors are not waterproof. Auto sound speakers are water resistant for that reason.
