and because i couldnt edit...

ride comfort/sound levels will coem down to the tyres..... performance tyres will grip better, but generally after about 20k on them, theyl start to rumble quite harsh... youll need to sacrifice grip levels :P for a touring-ish tyre... best talk to whoeve ris going to be fitting your wheels, as youll want the correct hubs, nuts, etc.
