Default Are these 21's?

I found this pic of a GS with Maya DX2's. "T's Project" or whatever. They are offered in 21's, looking at this pic I can't tell if they actually are 21's or if they just look big cause of the kit and drop. Anyknow know what size they are?

They dont make that size in this style.
This car is dressed in G-Answers bodykit and the wheels are Trafficstar DTX 20inch, the largest size wheel in the DTX range is 21inch, but in japan they favour 20inch on the 3GS.

Where did you get that information? Are you SURE that they are 20's? I mean i've seen alot of pics of 3GS's with 20's and they don't look nearly that big. Usually you have to run a tire with a larger sidewall to fill up the fenders but this GS has really thin tires.

They defineintly look bigger than 20"s so if they don't offer these wheels in 22"s I would have to go with the 21"s. They still seem even bigger than that though~

I think that's because the spoke design makes it look like a full face wheel. In that case the wheel may appear larger than it really is. Putting all that aside, the Trafficstar DTX is still a very nice wheel

*Oh and if anyone is intrested. Down below is the link for Trafficstar's DTX fitment sheet (shows all the sizes 21" -19")

Are Maya and Trafficstar the same company? Cause they share some of the exact designs with matching names. What's the deal with that?

They look like 21s to me also. The fact that it is slammed and the full face wheel makes them look bigger, but I have seen other 3GSs slammed with 20s and they didnt look this big

agree, all answesrs should be there.

can't really tel if this is 20" or 21". the face of the wheels create a visual illusion making them LOOK bigger. but can't really judge the size from that. kinda hard to say since the car is dropped so much as well

If you checked the g-answer website it will tell you,
www.g-answer.com and go to the, users car, and it says its wheels are 20inches

This is all I see in the 'users car' section and I don't see where it says 20" but then again, I can't read Japanese
