I also read at Michelin that tires may be derated by the manufacturer when they are mounted on heavy SUV vehicles. See below:
* Passenger sizes used in Light Truck/SUV applications have reduced load capacity. This will differ from the maximum load branded on the tire sidewall.
The link below will take you to the TireRack web site with the full specifications for the factory supplied 20 and 21 inch tires:

As hard as these cars can corner at high speeds, you do not want to risk a problem with tires that are not up to the capacity of the vehicle. Please read all the information before purchasing and mounting tires. |
These tires are for light trucks and Suv's. The X6 is in the middle weight range for suv's. I wouldn't have spent over $7000 on rims and tires that belong on a Hyundai. The rim shop I work with are very knowledgeable and would not make a mistake like that. Thanks for your concern.
