Is it just personal preference, or are you risking you bumpers driving with all seasons?
My answer to this is mainly how you drive. If you drive like I do on the open roads, you need the best tires on your car at all times -- that's why I need to switch my wheels every spring and winter. If you drive more "normally", then the all seasons should be fine.

And FYI, I think the X5 handles better than any other SUV there (with the right tires on). I have easily kept driving, in the winter, where so many other SUVs and AWD drive vehicles have been stuck on hills in VT and NH...
