Competition water meth

Hey folks, I'm over in Idaho visiting the family and arrived only to find two tires loosing air. Turns out the rims are cracking. These are Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels with supposedly a 3200# rating. Turns out they are a low pressure cast and this is common. I need to get new wheels tomorrow and I am running 35 x 12. 50R16. 5's. I need to come up with a strong "forged" wheel that won't do this again. I load the truck with a 9. 5' S&S camper and tow a boat and or quads. Any wheel suggestions without going way overboard on the cost?
 
Went with the Weld Velocity 8 XT's

I bit the bullet and bought the Weld Evo Velocity 8 XT wheels. They were spendy but Discount Tire in Spokane gave me full credit for my Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels and even gave me a set of "loaner" wheels to get me home because they had to order the welds. They shipped the new wheels to the Discount Tire closest to my home and I also forgot to mention that they gave me the Welds at their cost. Talk about customer service!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have had the Welds for a whil now with no problems. If these fail, I'm sellin' the rig and getting a dually!!!! That is if Dodge gets off the rear ends and puts out a Mega cab with an 8' bed. If not, I'll be visiting the Chevy dealer!
