In the first pic is the rear actually sitting lower, or is that just an "illusion"?

Same thing for the "doctored" second pic: do you really want the rear to sit lower than the front?

BTW, that truck looks familiar

I prefer the first picture too. I am not a fan of lowering nor raising the trucks. I like the standard height best. It
looks like the driveway may have a slope from the house to
the street which is often the case for better drainage. That may give the illusion of the rear being lower than the front.

I also like the factory wheel on the 2001-2004 Frontier. I
purchased a 2000 Frontier in late 2000 and had them switch out the 2000 wheels for the 2001 wheels. I still think that the 2001-2004 wheel is one of the nicest looking of any Nissan wheel ever made.

yea the rear is sitting a little lower mainly becuase i got lazy and didn't wanna fix the front too and it is on a slope so it just sits that way. But thanks for the feed back i guess it is an aquired look and you'd have to have an eye to liking it. I was thinking about raising too but that would have cost a lot more so oh well. Nice truck by the way dood. i agree with the last comment that the 2001-2004 are the best loooking frontiers. sorry to all the new frontys.

Gotta love the lowered look. Don't get me wrong, I love lifted trucks too, and I'd probably have one if I could afford the gas. But with a 4cyl manual 2wd, its more for lowering than anything else. Anyway, looks good man, the rims go well with the blackened headlights.

i like it, the rotas give it a nice perfomance look, a lot better than putting on some 20" chrome bling crap.

But I doubt Rota will make those wheels in 6 lug. I asked SubyDude (main Rota importer) to make a copy of the NISMO volk rims to fit the new frontiers and he said no.

Yeah, you'd have to do a 5 lug conversion. But I heard that there are spacer things that go from 6 to 5.

Hey, just to clarify, I wasn't saying I didn't like it. It's not a bad look at all; I was just curious if you had intended for the rear to be lower. Shave the door handles, fill in the faux fender rivet recesses, and fill the front fender flare - bumper gap and you'll have a really interesting look

actually if you look up those rims, hopefully no one has more money than i do and buys them but if you look up under google, rota formula mesh 6x139.7, those models are made in our bolt pattern it was a stroke of luck and im super stoked after looking for over a year for rims. i just need to wait prolly 2 paychecks which is a month lol. oh well

yooo no offense taken, yea it was a messy photoshop job just wanted to get the jist of how it looked. i kinda like it but not too sure how much farther i will go with it. i heard shaved door handles are pretty expensive too. ehhe
