Dare you to break a well made forged wheel. Your suspension and car will need repair also.
I jumped a curb in my Supra...bent up all my wheels....no suspension damage...no body damage. I had a set of 17" Racing Hart C2 3-piece forged wheels.

However, I do agree that with cheap wheels, you have to be more careful. I had a friend where one of his wheels ended up with a crack around one of the lugs.

thanks,
