Yes!! The X5 actually does pretty well in the snow. I have the old school AWD system (62% power to the rear and 38% to the front).
Just drove the car and it went. The BMW DSC system helped out, but I believe the Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico do well in the light snow. Look at Tire Rack.com's user reviews. I had 1.5' fresh snow to drive through.
Now, if I did live in an area of frequent snowstorms, I would recommend 18" or 17" wheels with snow tires for the X5.
For areas for occasional light snow, then these tires are great compromise.
