Best solution is to buy a daily driver. Or, you just have to get used to how the Z rides...it's a sports coupe and doesn't weight 2 tons However, in the spirit of the Z love, I'll chime in with my 2 cents:

When you said "uppering", it's easily assumed you meant raising the physical height of the car. The Polestar S60 came with adjustable shocks, your brother adjusted the damping, not the ride height.
  • One option is to keep OEM springs, but switch to Koni Yellow adjustable shocks. I'm not sure that helps enough, however.
  • If your butt is really too sensitive to the bumps (no joke intended), you need a softer spring. Any off-the-shelf aftermarket coilovers will use much stiffer springs that the stock springs(to avoid bottoming out, among other reasons). So I doubt coilovers solve your problem.
  • You have a sports pkg car with 19's rims and tires with stiff sidewall. If you don't mind giving up the look, switch to 18' wheels, then use tires with taller and softer sidewalls.
