E92 335xi suspension question

Hey guys was wondering if you can help me out .
Lowered my e92 335xi with vogtlang springs.
The drop was pretty agressive 1.6 in the front and 1.0
In the rear. I used stocks struts and trimmed the bump
Stops. When I hit and bump feels like my struts are
Bottoming out very harsh. Was wondering if putting
Bilstein b8 in the front and b6 in the rear will help
With the harsh bang over bumps.

Thanks

B8 for lowering, based on what I have read.

With that drop, you are totally outside the operational range of the OE damper, so no surprise there at all.

B8's are for lowering. They will take a couple weeks to fully settle as well.
