There are no after market shocks to make you car drive softer. even oem replacements like KYB G2 shocks tend to give u better control than the stock shock. You bought the wrong car i guess. Just put her up for sale but next time i can bet you you'll drive the next car a little bit of everywhere to get the total feel.

If you have aftermarket tires they alone can account for a vast difference in the ride qualities when compared to the OE tires. If this is the case, look at softer H rated tires when replacement is due. If the TL has OE tires, might look into Honda shock/springs as a replacement along with the H rated tires, but going this route will naturally negate the crisp handling in lieu of a more subtle ride.

Maybe its just me but I noticed a huge difference in ride quality from my factory Type-S shocks/springs to my Tokico HP's and Tein S. techs. My car is alot smoother and people in the back seat find it more enjoyable watching movies....my next setup will be a set of Megans or Tein SS due to their ride dampening features....

Being that I live in the Delaware Valley and travel back and forth between PA and NJ quite often, I too am interested in mods I can do to prevent damage from the expansion joints, railroad crossings and the harsh road surfaces in this area. Thanks!

Actually the TOKICO HTS shocks have a fairly wide range of damping. You can dial in the valving to make them fairly pliable.

Have you been searching for a shock that does it all? Are you looking for a shock that can handle the rigors of auto crossing, road racing and drifting? Then look no further than Tokico’s HTS line. With a large range of adjustability combined with affordable pricing the Tokico HTS line is sure to fit your performance budget.
Tokico HTS Dampers have been developed with an entirely different concept than traditional adjustable gas shocks. Instead of a shock that would be adjusted to “hard” on the track and “soft” on the street, the HTS Damper was developed to allow users to set up their suspensions to “move” the way they want, all the way from smooth, comfortable ride quality to race-ready setups for clocking record lap times.The HTS Damper gives users a huge range of adjustability and performance for all users and can be considered the ultimate street damper.

To the OP, sometimes MORE damping can make the large bumps feel smoother but you will feel the small ones more. Everything is a compromise.
