I've always thought Xander was quite nice to Spike in S4 and S5, perhaps even the beginning of S6. I guess the fact that his life went downhill after Hell's Bells, he took his frustrations out on Spike. During S7, I can say that Xander and Spike had come to an understanding. I can never buy a fic Post-Chosen or Post-First Half of S7 with Xander being hostile to Spike, because Xander had changed a lot, and of all the Scoobies, he was the only one who seemed to accept Spike and trust Buffy's judgment when it came to him
