Procomp wheel issue?

A guy at work has a TJ running Procomp 1059 and recently found cracks in two of his wheels leaking air. They are maybe a month old, running 31" all-terrain tires, and never been off-road.

He called 4WheelDriveHardware and they told him that Procomp was having problems with that wheel and they would refund him, including the cost to get the tires swapped over.

So has anyone else had this problem or even heard of this? Also, is this limited to the 1059s or should I be worried about my 1069s?

My 1069s came bent. I realized this as I spun it when I first instaled it. the tire wobbled from side to side. I just took it to 4 wheel parts and they replaced it for no cost. 1 month might be a little too long to wait though. I returned mine 1 day after installing it.

When I said they're a month old, I meant they're ONLY a month old. Yet two of them are cracked after only a month of driving to/from work. Seems like that shouldn't happen. My 1069s were fine out of the box, all 5 balanced nicely.

I drive it every day with no vibes I am worried about cracking though, especially since I'm a bit harder on my wheels than the guy I work with.
