22" square set up for GLS 63

I know a few people run square set ups (usually 285/45r22) for winter, but anyone do this year round with all seasons? I am more curious about whether there is any sort of downgrade in performance. My OEMs are 22s.

I ordered a set of 22x10 wheels with +23 offset at the rears. Originally, I was going to use these as my winter set with winter tires, but now I am wondering if I should just do all seasons and run them year round. Anyone do this and can comment on performance? Also, not trying to invite discussion on all season v. winter tires - I fully understand that aspect of things.

Unless you regularly take corners on the edge of traction, there will be no difference. If you do like to corner quickly, the rear would rotate slightly easier with the narrower tire.
