Do you have room to store second set?

Unfortunately, I wouldn't have anywhere to store them, which is a shame, as that would certainly be the ideal solution. (Plus it would keep the alloys nicer for fall/spring/summer).
I am hoping, however, for the majority of dry and rain driving, this size difference plus some new, better rubber, will make a big difference. I'm thinking of getting the TRD front strut brace and rear sway bar installed, too. (I don't see the need for lowering springs, though).
PS. Thank you to everyone who replied, I'm certainly going to do some reading on all the suggested tires. Hopefully the alloys will come by next week so I can get them installed and going.
