Swapping tires back and forth is something you need special tools for, I would never consider it an option. Tires go off the wheel when worn out and being replaced.
I've bought two new sets of wheels and tires for my GT86.
Summer: Enkei Fujin 17x7.5 w/ Michelin Pilot Super Sport 225/45R17
Winter: SvF Le Mans 16x7 w/ Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 215/55R16 studless
So I have chosen to go a little wider than stock in summer for a little more grip, and 16" in winter for a little more comfort.
Stock wheels sits in the shed because I might need them some day.
