DD with original suspension setup will not get rough ride, even with 19" wheels. Less body roll <> Bumpy ride.
My wife and daughter sleeps in my car well if I drive within +/-10km/h speed limit.
DD makes the chassis soft when you are going straight.

I think thats the different between my early model to your LCI model.

My DD never make the car feels soft, i complaint the ride when i bought the car 5 years ago before all the mods.
But that stiff ride did give extra sporty feel and through the bends tho

The FSD is definitely slightly bumpy than the stock, but i think thats the most comfort setting if you wanna lowering your car without the failure of the coilover

I think came from your new 19".
Eibach prokit for low down only. Try adjust the sway bar to soften position.
