I read the sticker on my spacesaver wheel and what do you know, it says basically when the tire is shot, do not put another tire on it, throw it.

OK... but in looking at it, it seems the gauge of steel, construction, welds, paint, and all that are comparable to a regular wheel so IMHO the wheel itself is as functional as a regular wheel; they just put that warning on there for CYA liability reasons.
