I just looked up those tires. That is a lot of money for a tire, even if they sound good. But given their name, and their intended use, they sound like overkill for "mostly clean asphalt". I myself now have GP5000 in 28 and 25 and I'm pretty impressed with the ride. You are looking into a category of tire that is far too expensive for most of us, and is it really worth it? I know the answer, as I rode Clement Criterium Seta tires for a while because there was nothing like a silk sew-up. This was 30+ years ago. But at some point I tried the Contis and decided that it was plenty supple for me.
