What tyres do you have and what exactly is the problem?

Thats contrary to my experience, I drove a 530 with joms and the ride was shockingly bad down a bumpy road.

H&R comfort cup kit would be a good option.
I'd be slow to fit coilovers unless they were very good. By 530 I assume you mean E39 530d heavy car. Never going to preform amazingly on any coilover IMO. I drove one before on coilovers not sure what they were but I wasn't impressed either. I have my e36 on standards atm and it feels awful.
A coilover offers you an adjustable spring perch, if damping, compression, rebound are calibrated correctly with the right spring, you won't have a problem, it should be possible to have a ride that is every bit as good as stock but as you say, you need to spend the money on a decent coilover.
