If you have the $, I would swap out the runflats as they are pieces of garbage.
As for the tire guy scratching your wheel, I've had it happen to me at the BMW dealer while they were replacing a runflat that had blown. The SA called me up and told me they had scratched my wheel while replacing the tire, and said they fixed it and it looks like new. Well when I got there to check on their work, SURPRISE, the paintjob was shit. I told them I wanted a new wheel and they complied. Needless to say I ended up curbing that same wheel a couple months later anyway. Stupid.

I wonder if there's ever been a wheel repainting that looked good.
I'm willing to drive the RFTs down to the cords, but I'm 90% sure I'm going to get conventional tires and a fix-a-flat kit when I replace 'em. The RFTs handle and grip well enough, and I do kind of like the peace of mind of knowing that if I get a flat in an unsafe area, I can keep going, but they are otherwise full of fail. They're very noisy and harsh over bumps or botts dots, and they're expensive.
