So far what I've seen is that ride quality is going to suck no matter what. You can do things to improve it but it's not going to ride like a Cadillac, unless you spend quite a bit.

There's a great suspension guide by Jazzer, and here's a great guide too where you can study and gain an understanding of how to attain drop+ride quality.

I found a pic of Luke's mustang after he cut 3/4 off one coil. It actually fills the wheel gap very well
