well depends on what kind of aftermarket ones you got. there are some cheap crappy ones for 10 bucks but there are also expensive piaas for 60 or so. you're getting what you pay for. the problem can also be the wiring or oil on the glass.

I had a set of superwhites ($30/set) that bubbled the glass. It did break, it just melted a little and caused a bubble on the side.
