Last night, 5-24-08, Irvine Sam Woo parking Lot (Culver Plaza). 2 IS250s, one modded, the other one stock. Modded one had HKS Hi power, drop, gold wheels, and body kit. I wanted to steal the rims =)

yeah, I thought of the same thing. Those wheels aren't Traffic Star, I saw that car the same day you did. I was playing games at the Arcade. Anyways a nice set of Traffic Star center caps might pull off the traffic star looks.

actually, they are TrafficStar wheels, but in the USA they were sold by Dazz Motorsports, under the Maya nameplate. Trafficstar centercaps wont help me since since the rims actually say Trafficstar on one of the spokes.

it had Maya on the spokes when i saw them. Traffic Star RTS wheels are made by Riverside Co., Dazz Motorsports re-badged them as Maya RT5 whees. but if they say Maya on the front, then they are not Traffic Star wheels.

meh, wheels are wheels, these wheels, ultimately, are RiverSide made, and badged as either TrafficStars or Mayas, same thing as Toyota selling the Celsior and LS400s under different names despite them being pretty much identical.
