That exact thing happened to at least 5 or 6 people on E60.net alone. Most of them did acknowledge hitting potholes just before the wheels cracked, which should have bent the wheels.....not crack them down the middle........clearly the wheels were defective. They reported driving at speeds ranging from around 35MPH to 75 MPH. None of the cars lost control or became unstable after the wheels cracked and the only way most of them knew something was wrong was because of some "weird" noised that they heard. Some of them even drove for a couple of minutes before pulling over to check where the noise was coming from.
