No.

Not meaning to take away from all the helpful suggestions that other members here are posting, but with coilovers in general, you will ALWAYS have a harsher ride compared to normal springs and struts. It is simply the nature of the trade off that a lot of people should think about before switching over. It trades ride comfort for improved handling and chassis dynamics. Great if you track your car a lot, but horrible for daily driving if your city has bad roads. I've had both setups on my car and can attest to the truth behind each.

If you want the ride comfort, then get airbags, but even those will only help so much because of your 20 inch wheels and ultra low profile tires.

That's the price you pay for looking good.
