Not feeling the tires, too small in my opinion, are they 18's, 30/35 series? Car needs to be lowered.

I have an 02 Maxima, same color, btw!

paint doesnt match, and you need wider tires and a more aggressive offset for the wheels.

paint doesnt match ??? its an exact match. must be the shadowing effect from the transition from body to the bodykit.... not sure. the wheels are exactly the same too...

Yeah it would look better if the wheels were more flush with the fenders. Looks clean though

How old is your brother? Car looks pretty good IMO. I think it would look great with a nice pinstripe running just above the door handles.

I like the drop, and the body kit. I dont like the way to small sidewalls, the very unagressive offsets, the wheels that look like they are 17's not 19's or the rear roof spoiler. Get some other wheels with wider tires and better offsets, besides that its clean.....

Edit-btw just noticed, tell your brother not to be a lazy a$$ and paint the rear calipers, the fronts are red, but the rears dont look pianted to me, thats ghetto imo.

yeah, the offset sux ***, but he got a real good deal on the entire rim/ tire setup, so he went with it ( college budget), and he's not too happy about the offset either, but it looks damn good when rolling..... and yeah , the tires are really thin, and he is lazy, he only painted the front calipers beacause he ended up swapping the front rotors to crossed drilled, hehehe.

Nice and clean, I like it. Not feelin the roof spoiler though and adding some spacers will help with the stance. I think one more inch drop will really good also.

we added spacers to the back wheels (1/4 ") and it was too much for the lugnuts to grab the studs.

Body kit looks good, probably would look cleaner/meaner without the wing imo. Wings on sedans don't look good to me, drop looks great, i think the rims need to be wider b/c they look to far in the fenders and it doesn't complement the drop very well. Hot car though.
