The sidewall height of the 185-70's is going to be (theoretically) about 5% 
more than the 205-60's. So that will get you a little more compliance. The 
bigger difference, if any, will come from differences in the tire 
construction. Are the 205's you have performance oriented? If so, then going 
to a street-type tire will help.

I found a large difference in ride quality from removing the traction 
masters and going to Dan Walters' torque arm; and from changing the front 
swaybar to have proper bearing blocks and attaching them to the control arm 
only at the outboard ends. The stock suspension flexes the swaybar even on 
normal bump and rebound, and that and the friction in the OEM swaybar mounts 
makes the front suspension harsh.

I'm also running 205/45-16 tires, and 450 pound per inch front springs. CAT 
springs and Koni's in the rear.
