Gotta fix the wheel gap!

All these pictures I keep seeing of this car show a huge gap between the front tire and the fender. If Nissan would lower the front to match the back, this car would look MUCH better. I wonder if after-market Altima springs will fit the Maxima.

that would actually be pretty cool, and it would also lower prices down by a great deal. i wouldnt be surprised at all if altima springs were to work on maximas.

quoted from freshalloy.com

The Atlima and Maxima now share the same FF-L (front engine, front drive, large size) platform, which utilizes a four-wheel independent suspension comprising of front struts and rear multi-link system

.....although it might not mean much, it still leaves some promise

I don't necessarily like the wheel gap either but I really don't find it that noticable.

i guess it depends on the color, on the black one you cant tell much, but on the lighter colors
