I would think your summer tires are lower rolling resistant than the winter ones. Winter tire compound gets very soft when temps are above 45*-ish and would hurt your mileage. I know I eeked out an extra season of my winter tires by having them siped again at a Discount Tire store. I'd suggest asking around at your local tire places to see if they offer siping services. My tires had to have 5/32nds on them to be siped, which they just barely did. It only cost me $10 per tire (i did two tires) and was well worth it.
