Default Is AVUS still in business?

I was wanting to purchase a custom set of AVUS forged wheels, but was told by a vendor that they are no longer in business. They still have their website up.

I would hate to buy expensive wheels, then not be able to get any support if I do something to one of them (like curb rash or bend).

Can anyone either confirm or deny this?

As of now, avus north america has been closed due to financial reasons.

Thanks for the info. I was about to buy some used AVUS wheels, and requested a quote for a new set to compare prices. That's when I was told they were out of business. I would not want to buy the used ones and then have a problem with no good option for service.
