I love them. I have the 20" set on my 2LT and I am very impressed. They feel a lot like the Pzero's, they just don't grip the road and corner like those. They also don't slip/stick like the Pzeros do when it gets cold.

I drove my camaro in today as we are getting all this snow, and they get traction where all seasons won't. I've drove them in 6 inches of unplowed snow and they worked great. Only issue was when someone plowed the sidewalk out in the street, I got stuck when I made a complete stop. Had to back up and momentum through it.

According to the specs, you can still run your car up to 150mph with the scorpion ice and snow tires.

Agreed! I get around better with my Scorpions than a lot of people with front wheel drive cars and all weather tires.

I have the blizzaks. They are amazing considering NJ has been getting pounded with snow and ice this year. I have been out in some of the blizzards and have not had one bit of problems. They grip well and rarely spin! If I were you I'd definitely consider looking into these as well. They are on my stock rim and the tire size is 245 all around.
