OP, just ride them. They're plenty good, and until you've worn out two or three sets of tires you won't understand what the detractors complain about.
Check the tires, especially the rear tire, at every state line crossing. If you notice the color or material at the center of the tire seems different from what's on the edges, or if you notice lots of flats (like one a day), replace the tire ASAP. Check local bike shops to see if they have anything that'll fit, or log in to a mail order outfit with a good selection of tires, and have them ship one to a place a day ahead of you.
