As you said, it is subjective, I don't know if you will find many people on here who have used BOTH on their X. The people who have the pirelli scorpions swear by them and will recommend them and same for the Grandtrek. For what its worth, I have the Dunlop Grandtrek on my winter set-up and they are excellent and I go deep into Maine and Vermont snow country. I would not hesitate for a second to get the Grandtrek again.
I don't think you will go wrong with either one. Both are also highly rated on tire rack. http://www.tirerack.com/survey/Surve...omCompare1=yes http://www.tirerack.com/survey/Surve...omCompare1=yes |

I have the Pirelli Scorpion Ice & Snow 255/55-18 and it's OK.

I will not have a spare. The runflats are $800.00 more and frankly I have not seen a runflat in real world conditions not disinegrate once the air is depleted. Once the air is depleted they heat up quickly and tear apart, so I figure I will be stuck anyway and it will be less expensive to replace a non-runflat winter tire than a runflat winter tire not to say that the availabilty issue. I have had runflats, had a puncture and 10 minutes travelling at 40 km/h they were toast.
