Lowering rear of the 181

[181´rn]

Hi,

My 181 is lowered in the rear. It was barely resting on the bump stops. I have now removed them and there is a 5cm/2in distance before the metal hits where the bump stop used to be. When i am going over speed bumps i can feel a gently bottoming out. No metal against metal sound.

My question is what is bottoming out first when you go low? Touching at the bump stop used to sit, the spring plate against the stop or the shock absorber bottoming out? (Running stock shocks at the moment)

Here is how the car currently sits.
