In my experience (and I drove on some pretty bad ones over the years) they tend to break a spoke or two, or once a little loose the lack of tension leads to further and faster deterioration, but I don't think they are very prone to catastrophic failure, maybe others have different stories to tell, but there is probably more chance of your front lower suspension mounts breaking if you are looking for something to worry about :)
