I'm always hesitant to make any promises but I will say that I offer a 100% satisfaction guaranty and have never had one returned.

Hello Clay,
Don't mean to be ignorant. But are the stock tires run flats? I have never replaced the original tires.

Another option that will totally change the ride is a proper front suspension brace. I'm not talking about some rinky dink bar stock. My "C" brace that's bolted between the front bumper mounts changed the ride so dramatically that I went from not wanting to take the car out to drive it anytime. I didn't roll 50' away from my house before I realized how much the brace altered the ride. It was amazing when I first installed it and it still is now. Went from having been as far as I'm concerned, beaten up, to what one would call a normal roadster ride.

Brace is cut 1/4" thick aluminum plate. In the shape of a "C" or an "E" with the center of the E cut off. Once bolted in place it totally got rid of frame twist and let the shocks do their job. Stopped all the front end bouncing and that stopped all the road irregularities from coming through the entire car. Side and rear view mirrors functional along with doing away with excessive cowl shake.

So three major things to check.
Run Flats 20 years old change them.
Check all shocks to make sure they haven't leaked out.
Wonder Bar ..Never heard a bad thing about it.

Rough roads and prowlers don't go well together.

There are several different options to tone down or control the harsh ride. 97's and 99's are the harsher rides of the years built. I'm not sure how much ride difference there is between those and the 2000's forward.

After having this brace in place I can honestly say I would never drive one of these cars without the brace installed. The ride is never going to be like a 300 but at least now I have no second thoughts about driving my car. And the best part was I never had to alter/modify the car.
