The Axis Hiro rims are bad. Don't know from personal experience, but my uncle was saying they crack. I think someone has a thread here with cracked Axis Hiros...

Well I've seen some broken Volk TE-37s and had one of my SSR Comps shattered, seen some broken Fiskes, Racing Dynamics, etc. I'm not sure I'd blacklist any of those wheels though.

I had a set of Centerline RPMs that got all bent up (still in my sig pic). I hit several steel plates in the road going about 35-40 mph (maybe more) hitting one dead on and skidding sideways into others. Long story, but it was dark and raining.

I thought they actually held up pretty well and wouldn't black list them. Had they been some cheap cast rim, they would have been destroyed.

The tires still held air and the rims looked OK on first inspection. I actually thought because they were forged, they had not been damaged. However, the inside lip on three of them got bent up.
