We had a track weekend coming up and I push my car pretty hard as an Instructor - and had this little gremlin in the back of my mind saying "If one of these wheels snaps and brakes, you're going to be in a world of hurt". I didn't really get comfortable with them and sold them off after the balancing issue, and bought a set of HRE's at 3x the price. My buddy who also installed them said they were the HRE's were best wheels he's ever mounted up and required a minimum of work to balance.

Nice looking wheels, but at these prices these are going to be made in China unless I miss my guess. And that opens up questions, of course. I bought a set of Chinese-made wheels about 18 months ago (different brand) that looked really nice, and when I gave them to my installer (who is a personal friend of mine) he brought them back to me and said "I did the best I can, but these won't fully balance up, they're not the best wheels".

Gentlemen,
I can understand your concern over the quality of these wheels but I can guarantee the integrity of these wheels. We have sold 100s of sets without any issues. There are many brands made overseas that are at the same price point and cheaper which we will not sell because of quality concerns. Quality and safety is definitely a top priority when buying wheels and Avant Garde is a great quality wheel. Feel free to PM with any specific questions. Thanks
