Nice combo! I do have the same. Can I ask what are your winter tires on the X5 and how does it drive? Thanks

Its a square setup, 275/40 -20 Blizzak DMV-2, running on the OE BMW style 214 wheels. The rear is a little stretched, but no issues. I have the tires inflated to 34/40 PSI front and rear to get rid of the squishiness from winter tires, and they drive just fine
You can get a better idea from this pic  Here is the same spot (at our cottage) from a couple of winters ago

Thanks! I have a dedicated OEW winter weel set and was running Blizzak LM-60 255/55/18. Performance was good but I found them noisy and they wore out fast.

I found the same thing when I ran the LM-60s. Also, they were not that great on ice
