So I was in the lovely state of Pennsylvania today and hit a pothole and cracked a rim. Will my model Y wheel work OK to use as a spare to get me home three hours away. I cracked the rear wheel. Edit worked awesome

Yeah, the 19 or 20 inch wheels will fit and clear the brakes just fine. I'm running a set of Gemini 19" wheels on my 22 performance and it rides so much better and I gained about 12% more range. The fitment isn't staggered and the diameter might be a little bit different. If it freaks out the traction control just put it in slip start or track mode and be careful. It'll probably be fine though.

Great I may end up buying a full set to prevent this in future. Are you using hub caps with them to get the better range?

I do have the aero covers, but I only use them on long trips out of town. Old Model 3 center caps for the Gemini wheels and the color is almost a dead nuts match for the later dark Gemini wheels.
