You're running tires with an almost nonexistent sidewall on 22" rims... The only way to make the ride smoother is to return to stock

It will never ride good with 22". If you want a better ride you need smaller wheels and more rubber. I had 22 on my old Tahoe, I went with 20" on this one for better ride quality.
