I know the forum has discussed tires a lot. I have a very specific question.

I have Bridgestone 760 Sports on my 01S. I like them a lot because they are quiet and comfortable. It's time to replace them and I am considering Continental DWSs as an alternative because their wearing rating is 60% higher 500 v 340.

Comfort and quiet are more important to me than handling so here's my specific question. Are the DWS's better or worse than the Bridgestones in terms of comfort and noise? The Tire Rack comparision says they are about the same.

Thanks for any insights you can provide.
