Can you recommend comfortable, quiet tyres?

Can you suggest a tyre to replace Good Year Efficient Grip, which are noisy and give a harsh ride, on my Audi A1? Many thanks.

I usually recommend Michelin Primacy 4 or Continental ContiPremiumContact 5 for summer tyres, though you should also look at Dunlop Sport BluResponse if your priorities are comfort and quietness. I recommend you look at all three on a tyre retail site like Kwik-Fit to compare prices and stats like noise levels.
