Bill K, I suggest you look at Conti DWS, an all weather tire. I have them on my E53 in your existing size and am very pleased with them. In MD, you get enough weather in winter months to benefit from their decent ice/snow performance, without really sacrificing much summer performance, so long as you are driving it as an SAV and not like you stole it ... I have had the Mich LTX m/s [and a/ts] on other vehicles [big Ford pickups] and really like them, but find the Conti DWS a fine tire for an X5. I had them in a similar size on a roadster [SLK] and they wore well on that demanding application [staggered, no rotation ....] Smooth, quiet ride for an all-weather, and reasonably priced, too.
