The "Slicks" felt like they had a slight increase in rolling resistance over the previous tires...[/QUOTE]

Could that be since they are brand spanking new? I might be my imagination, but I suspect rolling resistance with slicks improves after a couple hundred miles...

Anyway, I'm a fan of bigger tires, run 1.95s on the two bikes I ride the most...
