yeah I used those nipples not too long ago to remedy the same issue but the other day the wheel got hit kinda hard from the side and the nipple snapped at the point where the spoke met/sat just short of the rim. i felt like it might have handled it a bit better had the spoke actually sat inside the rim a touch. might still have broken...
