Adding preload to the spring will not stop it bottoming out, all it does is change the ride height and stops the initial high speed dip on the nose, the spring will still compress the same distance wether you preload it or not.

If the springs are the right weight for your given weight then decrease the air gap by adding more oil, but before doing any of the above, check that the sag is correct first.
