Front End Bottoming Out

I have never replaced the front springs on my 86 GN as I like the way it looks somewhat dropped in the front.

I did install 245/55 up front and is bottoming out. I think the car has been bottoming out when I had 235/55 up front as well.

Thinkin of buying new lowered stiffer springs, another friend mentioned they can add a stopper.

Any advice on keeping the lowered look (upfront only) but not bottom out.

Thank in advance.
 
Springs alone won't keep the car from bottoming out. The shocks control the dampening and if you're hitting the bump stops that means that the shocks aren't working right.
