Whichever is cheaper. The difference in performance isn't noticeable at all.

If i remember correctly, both of those kits have the exact same Hynix IC's in them. You can likely make the 3000mhz kit run at the exact same speed and timings as the 3200 kit, and vice versa. As the others said, whichever is cheaper would be the correct choice. Their speed/cas is very similar. Besides, you can technically adjust the tertiary timings for either kit to get more bandwidth if you need it. Both should cap out at around the same speed/latency.
