I think the wheels are as robust as a standard wheel.The space-saver tires a speed limited to 50-mph though,and about 50-miles range as they are gummy and wear quickly.
CAR and DRIVER put a set of four on a Corvette and skidpad tested it,returning almost as much cornering G's as the wide,high-performance OEM tires.
