A soft tire with lots of sidewall...like a 195/65/15 along with a compliant damper like the Sensa-Tracs will make a big difference. I know this from first hand experience with my xA.
Why is it unlikely? Because you want to pimp monroe shocks for the third time in a thread basically saying the exact same thing each time? Or is there an actual reason? Before I changed mine the springs were toast. I could push the rear down 2-3 inches with hardly any force. And, like I said, shocks aren't going to make the ride any less bumpy....

Its funny, every time I go in to auto zone I see the "recommend changing shocks every 50k" on the monroe posters, but my shocks were in much better condition than my springs when I changed them all out at 80k.
