Do you know what the spring rate of those front coilovers is? I run 350 lb/in up front and the ride is fairly tolerable. I used to have 275 lb/in up front and the ride was almost plush even though the handling was much improved over stock. Also make sure your front swaybar is not bound up or heavily pre-loaded at ride height; my ride was horribly harsh for a while and I figured out that's what it was (hit the sway bar on a hump on a crappy backroad going about 40mph and it damaged the mounts and caused binding).
