18" MB TKO rims and Goodyear Armortrack tires.

I have owned my tacoma for 3 months and recently put 18" wheels on it. I noticed the ride is a little bumpier than before on the stock 17". I want to lift it, but I really want to get the smoothest ride possible. What are my options and prices for a better ride with the lift??

I test drove a 2nd gen one with a dealer installed lift and I have to admit that I didnt find any difference in ride quality. I believe they were Bilsteins
