Help - Need New Tires....Conti's are NOT the trick

I just changed out the stock MXV4's on my 2001 9-5 SE (V6) with Continental CH95's. I did check the board before pulling the trigger on the Conti's, but, went for them anyway. The price was good, but the car has definitely lost its edge at speed on the highway. I did a test panic stop on an off ramp and it was a bit scary. I can still swap the tires out for another make, so some pointers are most appreciated. I know a lot of you out there like the Bridgestones and Dunlops, but I want to know about Pirelli. Didn't Saab just switch OEM tires to Pirelli? I'm trying to avoid Michelin...
Thanks!
