Silent not necessary comfort. Comfort is like not bumpy good ride, silent is quiet only but tyres can be b hard and bumpy but usually not.
For your wish list, set what your main priorities are first. Say comfort, silent first and performance traction at the end, then mid and entry level are for you....
60% comfort, 40%silent, entry level will do...

Mid also can, and may be better as mid have improved traction then entry.
Your tyre size 205/55R16 is very common. Can try Yoko C-Drive 2, have a few FD1 using.....

Tyre Noise? 17" to 16" no effect, unless you choose quiet pattern like Yoko V551, Toyo C-1S ad so on...

Tumpang: so meaning for 185/60R14, don't have any silent tyres with AA traction?
I am not sure if AD07 is AA, but sure is one hack of grip tyre **DRY ONLY** that was available on 185/60R14. I suspect this tyre is still available..
I almost bought one until I found out from a friend first hand how bad is the wet grip, prompted me to buy a Falken ST115 back then.
I still drive the same car / size, with a Falken ZE912.

AD-07 probably no more. If have, quite old ones....
