Can I replace PPV suspension parts to make it ride smoother?

Thanks for the advice!!

Run some 265-70-17 Michelin Defenders if you want a smooth ride.

I've got the same in 255/65, next set will probably be 265/70. Both are great choices for sure.

That's what I run on mine, but I got them in load range E. The Goodyear Eagles that came on it were also Load range E. I rather like them and run them at 60psi.
If the OP just goes with the standard load range tire his ride will be much better. Personally, I love the suspension set up. It reacts much better in traffic and there is a lot less sway/roll.

Just to report back and thank y’all again, I changed the suspension parts and tires as recommended and now my 2014 PPV rides very smooth, soaks up the bumps, and my wife is happy also!
Thanks again!

Nice did it give you a lift?

From what I understand, the new parts and tires lifted the car by perhaps 2 inches but I didn’t measure before and after. It still looks fine but just rides so much smoother.
