I'm not sure if it's possible to go from stock to a third party ROM without wiping. In general, it seems a wipe is recommended even when going from one major version of Cyanogenmod to another.

If you don't want to waste time wiping and restoring, you should wait for one of the big names. I stick to Cyanogenmod because that's what I'm most familiar with, and has lots of support. AOKP has become popular in the last few months, but I still would stick with Cyanogenmod.

I've been running the stock Jelly Bean released at I/O for over a week, and it's noticeably smoother than ICS. I still wouldn't say the touchscreen response is on-par with iOS, but most people won't notice.
