Default Suspension Spring Question

Now that the car is getting up in age, I would like to give her a suspension upgrade. Not looking at racing it around corners or on a track. I am looking for a more comfortable ride. I have upgraded with the proper shocks, but she still seems to hit hard when I hit a bump or on a crappy road. I have upgraded most bushings, so this points me to the springs. Are there any recommendations on springs that are meant for the ride and not for racing batman or night rider?

I have also replaced most bushings and shocks front and back on mine, but I still feel a slight wobble in the ride particularly on rough surfaces. I haven't yet tackled engine mounts, transmission mount and subframe bushes, but that's where I would look next.
From what I understand, the springs are pretty sturdy so they could be ok.

Cool I guess I will start there. I guess I will look on how to change both.
