Theoretically basal dose is between 25-50% of total insulin dose in 24 hrs (for you it is 8-16 U) which is best taken at bedtime. I think you had better take less bolus at lunch and/or dinner depending on when you have most of the hypos. You can start with 2 U reduction and advance according to your BG results.
