You can't beat them on any measure from smooth, quiet ride to price -
2 caveats, because tires are always a tradeoff of something:
1) They wear medium well - to get the great grip like any good tire they won't last as long as tires costing twice the price, but then a new set is nicer than old tires
2) They are softer and rounder on the shoulders than any other in this class - this is the soft, quiet ride and good wear on the corners - as a result, those of you expecting quick steering response etc will be disappointed. If you are not into hitting the corners hard for fun, then they are fine - but if you want a tire like that you are going to give up other things like noise, life, etc...
From what we know about you based on your previous tires, I recommend you give these a try
