Hard for me to compare since my oem tires turned into hockey pucks with flatspots, but;
Yes, the ride is also much softer just an overall good tire, lateral grip is slightly worse but not noticeable, for a DD tire this is the one to get.
I had 06DWS before them on my HR and the DWS sidewall felt like it was made out of kitchen sink sponges, the ADVAns just feel like a way better all around tire.

I only had them for 300 miles or so but they feel great for a DD/ spirited driving.

I wouldn't recommend them for a dedicated track tire though, they are too comfortable for that and being A/S do not provide as much dry grip, so if you are F/I over 400whp i'd imagine you'd be fighting with traction too much. I feel like their grip limit is stock power level +50whp or so.
