"Real deal" wheels can and do crack just as easily. There is no magic brand that is infallible. I had 3 cracked Enkei RPM2s, and a cracked OEM Enkei as well. igo4bmx had the cracked Volk. Cheap, expensive, it's a possibility no matter what brand you buy. It usually comes down to spoke design and road surfaces. With enough force any wheel will break. Running an aggressive offset also puts excess load on the wheel that isn't spread radially the way a flat non concave wheel spreads it out.
