Bigger sidewalls help with ride quality, if what you got in your sig pic is what you're using.. that makes it really rough.

leaf springs vs. coils in the back


lowered vs. stock (assuming your dad's is factory)

Well there's many factors than can lead to your rough uncomfortable ride. When I lowered my Tahoe I ended up swapping out bushings, shocks and any other part of the suspension that looked like it would need attention in the future. After doing that my trucks rides like stock, its a bit bouncy but I have some helper bags on the way, other than that it's smooth riding all the way.
