Are you on 17 inch wheels? They are a low-ish profile, but nothing very drastic. The ride comfort can change from tyre to tyre (a different type of tyre even by the same manufacturer can have a differnt sidewall stiffness). You could go for a higher sidewall tyre if you wanted, but that doesnt mean you'l get a softer sidewall and increased ride comfort.

If you are on 17s, try running a wider tyre.

Think my car is suppose to run 215s, but a lot of people run 225s for the extra comfort.
