Does the age of the wheel matter?

So I had picked up a set of used 437s as a winter set last year. I dont know the full history of course, but I believe I'm the 3rd owner, with the last two guys being F8X enthusiasts. The wheels are probably 5 years old (I'm not sure one can tell from the marking in the back). After removing them off my 20 M2C, and putting the 788s back on for the summer, I am seriously considering making the 437s my summer set and moving the 788s to winter. So, question for you all. Is it stupid to make 5 year old wheels my summers and put my relatively new 788s to winter duty? Here in the DC area, winter tires can be on the car for 4 (maybe 5) months, so maybe I'm overthinking it? I will have my wheel guy thoroughly inspect the 437s to ensure they are in excellent condition. Looks wise, there are excellent, no curb rash, dings (my 788s actually do ) etc. Ceramic coated and pics below. Thoughts?
