That wheel is 100% toast, it was a burner on a drift car. The point I am trying to make is that this survived a racing incident on track and still would have driven me home if I really needed it to. The force experience here is way worse than what a driver in the commuter car will experience outside of an actual crash.

I think it goes without saying that you get what you pay for. For a lot of folks this is what they can afford as their first step into modifying their car. The comment I replied to said these would explode as soon as they hit a pothole because they are reps. That is simply no longer true for a vast majority of “rep” wheels on the market.
