I've personally been at the Vossen facility down in Miami, and as far as wheels go, I wouldn't go as far as to call them fakes or bad wheels. They have unique designs and they are machined in house. I think they have really nice concave designs and their new forged lineup looks pretty good. (Precision series)
Are they amazingly light, forged wheels? No. Are they JDM-reputable? No. Are they low cost? Depends on who you ask. Me? I have different tastes and I prefer smaller, wider wheels. I also trust longstanding companies that have good reputations, like Rays engineering.
Maybe there have been many cases of cracks and stuff. They also happen to be very popular and in demand, so there may be a confirmation bias there. There are also japanese wheels that fail as well. Anything is possible.
