Aftermarket bump stops help allow slightly more travel (typically) of the suspension that stock bump stops due to their shorter height. Changing the bump stops will only lower a vehicle which is sitting on said bump stops (you would have no movement in the suspension if this was the case). If you want to lower the car more than your "h" springs allow then coilovers or springs with a more aggressive drop would be the path you need to take.

No, the only way that it would lower the car more is if the shocks were already bottomed out and resting on the current bump stops.
