I don't spend much time eyeballing the inside tire view of every X I see,
but every one I have seen has that kind of wear, esp on 19s/20s, including mine. That camber is there for "handling", and I recall a few posters that have had it adjusted/diminished...

My rear tyres have worn the same way, and according to the tech at my local BMW shop, it is pretty normal for the X5's, and is caused by the way they are setup for handling. They can be adjusted to be easier on the tyres, but then you will sacrifice cornering ability.
