Default anyone grenade their Rota's?

Did a search and didnt come up with anything... But anyways I just picked up a set and I love them but at 11.5lbs each I'm wincing at every bump expecting them to completely shatter and drop the car down on the hubs and destroy the fenders...
Anyone have pics or know the limits of when/if these wheels fail or do they tend to bend rather than break?
tia,
K.

They're pretty strong. Had mine for a few years. Been through a couple rough potholes but everything is still straight.

A friend of mine has 16" C8's and he was goin 45 and hit a sunken lip of the road in a construction zone and it bent the **** out of his lip. It didnt completely ruin the rim its just got a bad bend in it. Other than that incident theyve held up fine to daily driving.

All wheels are ISO, JWL, and VIA certified to quality and strenth.

VIA is really hard to pass to.

Hit a curb today pulling into the driveway at work. Hit that thing so hard I thought the rims and the cement became one.

I hit a pothole that caused my passenger side turn signal to fly out. It was dangling by the wire... No damage...These are a very nice, cheap, strong, decent looking wheel
