21" Alloys Style O't Grey 744 / Performance Winter Tires

Hello-

I've been doing some research into winter tires for my new X5. Currently I have 21" Alloys Style O't Grey 744 / Performance. Can I get just tires for these wheels or do I need a new set of rims as well?

I took delivery of our x5 on 11/15 in New Jersey. That was the day of the freak snow storm. Came out of no where. Roads weren't salted, nothing was cleaned it was a mess. I was driving on the 21's summer tires. Really scary. 3 days later I put on a square set up of the scorpion winters in the 275/40r21 all around. So no, you don't have to change rims.

Did the tire dealer have a way of getting the locked lug nuts off?
