You could always sell your current wheels. Use that money combined with the money to buy the new wheels and get one set of nice wheels. Other than that I would probably just keep what I have.

I was thinking that it was easier to get another set n swap it out wen it snows here in NJ. A set for winter w decent winter tires and the MTs for summer

Is the car your daily? If not I wouldn't be changing wheels unless you want a track/drag setup.

Sell the ZR1s and get a set of 16 x 8s with some A/S tires, then get some Weld RTS wheels for the summer.
