Just as an odd point but its about design and execution with materials. My magnesium centered wheels are 33 years old that were raced and beat on in the glory days of IMSA on a 935. Now they're on street duty with my car and after quite a few miles and being beat on they're still uncracked and holding up.

I know its apples to oranges but perhaps a better design with a slightly meatier tire (sidewall) would go a long ways in the longevity of these wheels.

Just a note - Fikse is back in business. They were bought by Kodiak. Now in production with parts and service. Nice to hear since they are very good wheels.
In my book the top brands are (in no special order) BBS, Fikse and OZ.
