There is quite a difference in rolling radius according to an online calculator, 100.8" for the 22`s and 94.3" for the 20`s so it would not do the diffs or the abs much good, so maybe look for another 22"

I have already done it
Probably wouldnt hurt for a very short distance but get all to match asap would be best.

No. It should be a full sized wheel to be used as a normal road wheel. well all mine are

Seems someone forgot to buy the spare when they went from silly wheels to rubber bands. I'dcsay no to using it. Apart from the technical side, something in me is saying there might be a roads violation in it, if not a one off emergency , eg, stuck on motorway or similar predicament.

Today's rim sizes astound me, being an old fart.
20in. is the size on the HGV's I used to drive, albeit with a lot more rubber wrapped around them
Just out of interest, can anyone explain what the attraction is to car owners ?
nb. rubber band tyres should in theory be cheaper, but I doubt that's the case.

well my 22's are wider than my 19's which in theory gives a bit more tyre in contact with the road, the side walls are less which gives them less flex, on good roads the handling is better than my friends who is on 18's having said that i always switch back to the 19's during winter

It's fashion. Low profile tyres are really only applicable to high performance cars for their lower compliance and so improved handling.Today's rim sizes astound me, being an old fart.
