My initial reaction is the tires felt very slippery but I am pretty darn sure its because of how they were cleaned and the fact they are bran new. I am sure I will have a better idea of how they are once I put a couple hundred miles on them and actually start driving normally again.

You're going to need to put a few hundred miles of normal street driving on them before the mold release goop wears off the tires. Until then they will feel fairly slippery.
The might also feel a little more squishy than you're used to because you are going from a tire with not much tread left to one with full tread, so you'll feel that tread deflection. The sidewalls are also a bit softer.
All-in-all a good street tire.
