You're right about the bend, it was 124's not 172's! Very sorry.

Sorry, can't read every post on the forums. While I do sympathize, you are the only reported case I know (and that has always been my qualifier, "that I recall"). I am sure there are others but if there are, they are not widely reported, either on this forum or others. As Howitzer realized, he was remembering a spate of cracked and bent 124's from some time back.

The right tire size for 128s' would be:
- 245/35 R19 for front (and rear)
- 275/30 R19 for rear with staggered setup

The strongest OEM wheels I've ever had were the 19s on my Infiniti M45 Sport. Those suckers hit some massive potholes but never bend.
