You can get progressive rate spring or specific rate. The specific rate are firmer and provide a stiffer ride. The progressive rate have a softer rate up to a certain compression and then it becomes stiffer the more compressed it becomes. Ford, Eibach, and others have some good springs that will provide you with a decent ride. While you at it you may want to install some new shocks and struts. Some companies have combos that maximize the spring and struts.
