The ride seems a smidge softer and handling seems fine (have not gone fast or taken any hard turns yet).
I hope it does ok when the snow comes. In the past I changed the wheels and tires to a dedicated snow setup and since the scratching incident, I am kinda regretting not doing that again.

The scratch-stuff is a bummer.. A good tire shop is hard to find.
I'd have done a dedicated snow setup too, but the only option I could determine was a $6K set of ///M wheels + tires and then you're still looking at 20" x 275 width minimum.
I'll hope you/we have good luck on the full size Scorpions.
