Default I can get 4 new tires for free, i need some advice though

so I have an interesting proposition at hand. I rencently bought a 94 Z28. It came with z06 rims and nitto 5552s on them. This is my daily driver and my parents arent too happy about me having DRs on the car, as i will need to driving in all weather. So my father, in a rare stroke of generosity, has offered to buy me 4 new all season tires. My thinking is, i get the new tires (315s if they will fit, im not too sure), sell the other tires, buy two more wheels, and when i can, buy some of the stickiest tires i can get for them for the track. My question is, what tires would you recomend as some decently performance oriented all season tires for the car that would come as wide as 315?

I would recommend the goodyear eagle f1 gsd3 tires. They are a good all around performer, both wet and dry. Thar aren't the stickiest but good. What size are the zo6 wheels?

17x10
Edit*
I guess they are really 17X9.5. I was reading the sticky and saw that was the size they came in. I am currently running 275-40-17

I would stick with the 275s...and here's another vote for Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3.
