The more I think about it, this seems like the easiest route to take. The tires will come mounted and balanced on the wheels, and they even have an option to add the TPMS. So when the time comes, I am thinking:

1. I can have these shipped to my house.
2. Swap out the wheels in my driveway.
3. Store my regular/summer wheels & tires in the garage.
4. Drive to the nearest local, trusted auto service place to do an alignment.
5. ????
6. Profit!

Seriously, this will likely cost me somewhere around $2,000 or so, unless someone comes up with a much cheaper option.

I've also considered getting a winter beater and garaging the 370Z for the winter, but I think this is likely a much larger headache. Even though the beater option virtually guarantees that I won't get the Z dirty, stuck, or God-forbid into a weather related accident, there's not too many reliable and acceptable looking cars in this price range. Also, I think I can throw fun to drive right out of the window as well.
