Sport Seats will also give u more pleasure.. Very difficult choice u have perhaps the dealer can help u out without to much cost.. Don't get EDC that is a very stupid choice.. Stuff only gets stiffer and not more comfortable
Agree, the switch to non-RFTs is the cheapest option...even better if you can swap to 18".

FWIW, the ride in Comfort on an EDC equipped car is better (slightly softer/more compliant) than the standard suspension following the damper calibration changes BMW made in production for cars built from January this year.

But really, it sounds like the nub of the OP's problem is the seats, and that'll be expensive to remedy. Those standard MINI seats just don't cut it, in my opinion; the sports seats are a great improvement.
