I think they are a knockoff of Yokahama AVS wheel.

They look very nice though.

I'd do a little more research before pulling the trigger as I am sure they have more.

Good luck.

Eh, those are crappy knock-offs of the Advan Model 5 like Sasha pointed out...they even tried to make the centercap look like the real AVS centercap...definitely would avoid these....get the REAL thing instead...don't try to "pimp on a budget"...
