I cracked a nice set of 'forged' wheels from a different company on my previous car. The company was D-forged. Perhaps someone can correct me, but I've been told by numerous people that the same barrels, faces and parts are supplied out of china these days. Hence so many of the companies having the exact same or similar designs?

Who knows... iForged has a much worse rep than HRE, thats for sure.
the top pic is some old ass wheel,it may not even be HRE,just a center cap, the bottom one is 100% not HRE wheel, also do you have factual details and conditions on how theese wheels broke? I've seen plenty of OEM wheels break just like the one in bottom photo, just take a trip to local salvage auto auction
