That's because those 20" wheels were NOT all season : ) Not unless you asked your dealer to swap them with non-runflat all season tires such as Continental DWS.

I ran oem 19" all season wheels/tire with my '12 X5 that also came with 20" summer performance tires. I had no problem in 2-4 inches of snow.
