depends on the weather
without knowing what tire you are currently running making a recommendation for something better is difficult at best but, by far the best riding tire available in the OE sizes would be the Michelin Primacy MXM4

also, in many instances, air pressure adjustments can give you a ride quality improvements well

For a performance tire they do ride very nice but, it's still a performance tire and will not match the ride quality of a touring tire like the Michelin I posted earlier. The Extreme Contact DW is a good compromise between performance and ride quality
