I currently have an 18-55mm lense and a 55-250 lense.
What improvement are you looking for over your existing lenses and camera?
CAMERA - Your current camera has a 15MP sensor. The T6 has an 18MP sensor, and is not good in low light. If you shoot video, the T6 lacks an external microphone input. The T6 is truly a beginner's DSLR. Aside from a Wi-Fi system that is not as flexible as people expect, the T6 may disappoint you. It is not much of an upgrade over a T1i, but more of a replacement camera, and your T1i doesn't seem to be broken.
LENS - There have been a couple of versions of those lenses. I assume your current lenses are what came with the camera kit, or were what was available when the camera was new. Most of today's lenses should offer noticeably better image quality over those lenses. Are you looking to replace one or the other? If so, which lens?
What is your budget? You can rarely go wrong buying a quality lens, except for when you're buying one that duplicates a lens that you already own. Almost no one needs two 50mm f/1.4 prime lenses. Unless you purchase a camera body that represents a technological advancement over your T1i, which a T6 definitely is not, a lens purchase could be a better investment.
The T6 is not sold as a body only kit, but some better Rebel cameras are sold as body only kits. The T6, like all of the Rebels, comes with "starter lenses", which are not much better than what you already own, if not identical to them. No, I would not recommend a T6. Check out the "body only" Rebel camera kits.
