Enjoy your new tires -- the treads look like they have a nice bite. I just drove 500mi from Newport Coast to Tahoe with plenty of snow on the road. My C is equipped with the Porsche supplied Continentals (M+S). They did OK, but not as good as the dedicated snows. On my previous C, I swapped dedicated snows for summers every year and it got to be a PITA, so I just go with the M+S's. I do have flexibility coming and going according to weather conditions -- and that helps.
