And that is the point I was trying to make re; lug centric vs hub centric.
Failure mode likely had nothing to do with the little countersink.
Draw your own conclusions...
You are so stuck on this... look at my lug centric wheels pictured above it is NOT what they do to all their wheels.
Lug centric or Hub centric would strain on the recess and that recess is the failure point.
No...I am not "stuck" on anything. Just looking at the evidence and expressing my theory. I haven't seen any other factors expressed here that would lead to this type of failure (radial stress fractures).
I have no dog in this fight, don't like after market wheels for heavy duty applications for a number of reasons (threads like this are one of them...Aftermarket are OK for bling...but IMO not for "work").
As others have mentioned, proper seating torque is critical as well so as not to over stress the bolt. But the bolts were not the issue here.
Anyway, glad no one got hurt, and it looks like the OP has made a decision to move on also.
