Those are about the going rate for the tires. You got a deal on the install though, based on prices around here.
Watch out the first few times you lean the bike into the corner... these tires just seem to want o keep leaning and offer no resistance as the stock tires did. Yes they are a bit "cushier" feeling. In fact, I raised my tire pressures by 2 psi to 30psi f/r after installing mine to get some "feel" back.
enjoy!
