HippoSleek is an unknown quantity at this point
I agree that it is tough to tell you about sidewall width w/o knowing what rim size you are using.

More to the point, however, it should be stated that tires matter a LOT for overall comfort.  A high performance, Z rated tire will have a MUCH stiffer sidewall than an all season H rated tire.  As a result of the stiffer sidewall, the ride will be noticeably harsher, even given the same size tire.

This is even more true when you have a stiffer aftermarket suspension - so that the tire is left soaking up bumps for comfort while your 300# springs do nothing.
