Thanks!
We ended up running the Nokian WRG2 SUV's on my wife's '06 X5. We didn't run them as summer tires though, we did run them though the end of May (took me a while to decide on summer tires). Overall they feel very similar to the stock Michelin Energy MXV4's, but with better wet weather manners and braking. Here is more of our experience, and impressions..
