That said, I've run 20" Pirelli Scorpion Ice/Snow on my X5M for three winters - they worked great.

I'll be doing the same thing with my new X5.

so you kept your original rims on?

Yes.

It's kind of a hassle to switch (the summer/winter tires) back/forth, honestly.

I have a new X5 on order and am on the hunt for some 20" 'winter wheels' that I can mount my current set of Scorpion tires on for the winter.

I have a spare set of 18s with studded winter cats on them. My shop switches them for free every winter. It is the way to go!
