KYB AGX shocks installed & still bottoming out


Just as it states I currently have Eibach Sportlines springs on my 1g and I was riding around with blown shocks for a while and I finally installed my front AGX shocks. So I put them on the stiffest setting and I went crusing to see how it feels and its like there is no difference. I feel a slight difference while riding but once the bumps come and I turn I bottom out. Now I know the shocks are good and I have been asking around and I need bump stops that I found out the I didnt have but what else would cause my car to bottom out even though they are on the stiffest setting?

How much does the car weigh?

Are the springs untouched?

What settings do you have on the front shocks? 1, 2, 3, or 4?
