I'm used to swapping out for the winter on my other cars, including the X5, all-seasons just get too hard in the cold weather. But you raise a good point. Might be silly to do so for a 3rd vehicle. That said, not sure I would trust this, being a RWD, in the snow even with all-seasons, so would either go with a winter set or just not drive it in bad weather. Chances are, I wouldn't need the 3rd vehicle those days anyway.
