I was under the impression that BMW Xdrive is a rear biased system so if anything shouldn't the rear be more worn? I've since rotated my tires but can't help but wonder if there's something not right with my car?

Likely an indication of 4 things.
1) Aggressive driving with heavy braking wears the front tires faster due to weight transfer.
2) Driving windy roads, more wear on the front vs freeway.
3) Bad aligment due to toe or camber. Where is it wearing? Inside, middle, outside or evenly?
4) 20k miles on x5 tires is not bad. I have gone through most sets at 20k. Some lasted 30k but these sets were not performance summer tires and were garbage for grip. I got a lot of mileage at the expense of ride quality.
