Yes, our VEXpro wheels did crack, but that only happened this past December at a fundraiser where we were showing off our robot. We went to two competitions last year and had several other fundraisers and expos before they broke. I believe they are durable enough. You shouldn't have to worry about cracks during competition. I believe they also sell replaceable wheels for the mecanum if any of them seem to have significant wear or break.
