Smaller wheels and higher springs are a good start. Shocks mainly if they're pretty old.

The easiest way for a start, is go a higher profile tyre....Personally I'd be looking at 225/55X16, just for that tyre sidewall flex, which helps cushion the bumps...

From there, you can raise the suspension, which also helps with ride comfort.....Depending on your budget, you could go the coil overs as suggested, or you could just go with factory style springs.....Personally I'd be going FE2, which is 50 MM lower than standard factory height (which is the same height as police cars), or you could go standard height....Choice is yours

So a few options you could try
