SRAM 22 and 10 speed chainring compatibility

Has anyone out there tried running a Sram 22 setup with a 10 speed (exogram) chainset?

I've done a bit of digging in google and on forums and see that the Sram official advice is that the chainrings are spaced differently so there may be problems - but of course they want to sell you new chainrings or a chainset.

Looking at aftermarket chainrings (e.g. wickwerx) they don't have a difference between 10 and 11 speed so that seems contrary to this advice.

If possible I'd like to avoid the expense of new rings and also to be able to continue to swap chainsets across bikes (compact and double).

So what I'm interested in is hearing from anyone who has had a go at making a 10 speed chainset work with an 11 speed system.
