E string too loose

Hello, i have a yamaha trbx174 and ive set it up (truss rod: fretting at 1st and 13th fret theres about 1 bussiness card of clearance between the 7th fret wire and the string, nut has 1-2 business cards of clearance at the first fret), and ive lowered the string as much as i can (e string sits at about 2.5mm from top of the fret wire to the bottom of the string with first fret fretted.), if i set it any lower it start banging into the frets. So yeah my G and D are tight and my A strings a little looser but still good but my e just feels too high off the neck its harder to play, should i get heavier gauge strings maybe? (The stock ones are 45-100)
