Summer Wheels / Winter Wheels

I've got one set of factory wheels with winter tires, and one set with summer tires.

(Living in Colorado it's worth having the two sets)

Problem is, in the winter, the factory "20 spoke" wheels tend to collect an amalgam of snow, ice and gravel in a rather unbalanced manner.

Now that I've got my summer wheels back on, I'm looking to replace the winter set.

I'm thinking fewer spokes, less hassle.... at least easier cleaning. Anyone else have this experience?

Question to be answered: Does wheel design affect ice collecting tendency, or is snow/ice just going to collect at the bottom of the wheel when parked anyway?
