Disagree, if that was the case, all cars would have wheel gap as large as the Maxima. Its a matter of cost. A properly designed/tuned suspension that eliminates wheel gap is more than a set of springs. Since the maxima/altima/murano all share the same underpinnings, they are limited to what they can do suspension wise to the chassis outside of different struts/springs.
