Lol ...try looking up Avant Garde in a search engine....bound to get somethin. I found out they are really nice european wheels.....found on alot of Audi's , Mercedes, etc. They made the rims for the lancer off fast and the furious. Maybe if you dig enough you can find a dealer.

That logo is a ringer for Yokohama's AVS logo.



Which would lead me to believe they are Chinese made wheels. I found a website that appears to distribute these AVA wheels and a lot of them are knock-off designs of brand name wheels.
