Default Stock 18inch wheels with aftermarket 19inch wheels

Is it ok to use the stock 18inch wheel as a spare with 3 aftermarket 19inch wheels? I need to replace a rear wheel and I'm currently using the stock 18inch as a spare on the rear.

If you sized your after market tires correctly than I imagine they should be fine with same widths and overall diameter.

And just as important, is to keep your spare tire inflated at specs. It's no fun replacing a flat with an under inflated spare..
