I have a 2018 platinum with 22" OEM wheels. I am thinking of switching out my wheels for 20" aftermarket rims. Do I also need to switch out my spare tire to a 20" steel wheel and tire or can I keep my 22" spare since the overall diameter should be same.

Mine came with 22" wheels stock. My spare is an 18" wheel. I would doubt very much you have a 22" wheel unless you put it there.

Are there any issues with going from factory 22" rims to 20" for my 2018 Platinum?

If you keep the same tire height and width/spacing, no speedo correction and no rubbing.
Also, probably a better selection of tires (both less-expensive and more off-road types).

And more than likely, an improved ride by a bit more sidewall.

I am thinking of getting the Voxx vento wheels.. Here's an image of what it would look like. Anyone have any experience with this brand?IMG_6049.jpg

The diameter of your needs to match the diameter of your tire/wheel combo your putting on.
If you get a flat and you out the spare on and it doesn’t match the others , the AWD will think it’s slipping and could really cause problems.
I did it with an Explorer and a mile down the road it locked up. Had to get it towed. Thankfully I did damage anything

Nice looking wheels but they look just as likely to be 'curb magnets' as the 22"s. I have the 22's and love the look but can't stand how easy it is to get curb rash. You will have plenty of offers to buy your rims if they are in good shape ;)

Thanks for posting these. I would also like to downsize from 22s to 20s and like this style. The way the spokes overlap the rim makes them appear bigger than they are, which will help maintain the look when downsizing.

I need to do more research, but voxx looks reputable. 2500lb load limit per wheel.. Summit Racing has a decent price of $840 before tax with free shipping.
