The ride does feel better and I also got rid of the steering wheel vibration which was very annoying.

To start all the rims are 17x8 Ford Polished Bullitts. Front tires are 225/65/17s and rears are 275/50/17s. The back has been lowered only with the Roush rear springs. I've included an old picture with stock tires for comparison.
