Holden Commodore 2005: Bumpy ride

...

I recently changed the alloy wheels on my 2005 VZ Holden Commodore from 17-inch to a 20-inch and lowered the car as well. After doing that I noticed the car ride is not smooth and I can feel every bump in the road. Is there any thing that I can do to fix it, or is that a common problem with lowered cars?

That's what happens when you change to low-profile tyres and fit harder springs, shock absorbers and bushes. You can try different shock absorbers, which might help, but there's not a lot you can do about it.
