I've been running the standard Winters Mag hubs for about 3 years and had no problems. Just swapped to the 007 Mag hubs and may have 400 laps with no issues. This is with a crate car though..

I had some on the front of my Rayburn years ago .. they developed some cracks (after a few years) so I switched to aluminum wilwood.

Just be careful on the old winters mag hubs that don't have a machined raduis that blends to the wheel lug tabs, meaning the triangle shaped pad the wheel sits against has a stepped edge where it attaches to the rest of the hub. The newer ones had this area machined so there was no shape edge or step and the old ones would break on the RR if you slammed a cushion hard enough.

new machined style pictured here: http://1b3soz6fcl542xzhb33r2id1.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Front-Mag-Hub-w.jpg

couldn't find the older ones to picture which ones to look out for, but they are old like late 90's or early 00's, IIRC
