Hey Edm Alb.
Not sure if this will be any help to yeah...
I just recently bought an 05 V70R Volvo.. Crazy fast car
This thing is loaded with features I have never seen in a car.

But anyways. One of the features the 3 on board computers does is controls the feel of the ride. It does this through my adjustable shocks.
If it is set in SPORT mode, I can feel every crack in the road.
If it's set on PERFORMANCE It's like there is no suspension at all. It's enough to knock your fillings out.
If it's in COMFORT mode It's as smooth as a Cadillac.
I'm riding on 245 45R 17
My suggestion would be. Keep your sweet Tires and Rims, Tweak your suspension.
