The tongue weight for any vehicle would take into account the weight of any hitch mounted carrier added to the weight of any cargo placed in or on the carrier.
Both the cargo carriers, part # C18110 and part # C18145 weigh 30-lbs, so you just need to decide which style carrier best suits your needs.
The # C18110 has an inside measurement of 47-11/16 inches long x 19-1/2 inches wide, and 2-3/4 inch side rail height. This carrier has an angled shank with a 3-3/4 inch rise, and would help... view full answer...
The light-duty Class I hitches made for your 2017 Nissan Altima, Draw-Tite # 24796 and Curt # C11352, both shown on the linked page, have a tongue weight (TW, downward force) rating of 200-lbs. This is true for all Class I hitches for all vehicles.
While there are some lighter-weight mobility chairs on the market, such as the 54-lb Lexis Light, most mobility chairs weigh more, some well into the 300-lb range. Your hitch's TW rating should be noted on its safety sticker. This limit must... view full answer...
When the Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack # Y02445 referenced in your question is folded up, there will be a distance of 7 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack. When folded down, this distance will be 12 inches.
This is a very nice bike rack that works with 1-1/4 inch, Class II trailer hitches and can hold up to 2 bikes at 60 pounds each. The rack can also be tilted away for easy rear cargo access on your vehicle and both a hitch lock and bike lock are... view full answer...
I spoke to my contact at Sportrack and she informed me that to install the Sportrack roof rack part # SR1005 on your 2000 Nissan Altima will require the following measurements:
The front bar scale is 26 inches.
Rear bar is 22 inches.
The front bar will sit 11-3/4 inches from where the front door meats the rear door.
The rear bar will set back 23-1/2 inches on center from the front. view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24788 is a Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitch that has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds. This means the weight of a cargo carrier and whatever is on the carrier will have to no more than 200 pounds.
I found an owner's manual online for your 2005 Nissan Altima and it states the the vehicle's maximum tongue weight is 100 pounds. Check your owner's manual to be sure because you will be limited by the lowest rated factor. The Draw-Tite... view full answer...

With the Titan Chains like the # TC1138 installed we typically recommend a speed rating of between 30-35 miles per hour as the maximum speed.
There are no chains that will allow you to travel faster than that. Also, if you are in snowy enough conditions to call for chains you probably shouldn't be going faster than 30-35 MPH even with the extra traction that chains provide. view full answer...
I went out to the warehouse and pulled a CURT Spring Bar Retainer Package, # 17109, to measure the pins. I used a set of digital dial calipers to take the measurements. Each pin is 0.724 inches long and has a diameter of 0.313 inches. The kit is designed for CURT Round Bar Weight Distribution systems. view full answer...
A Nissan Altima is compatible with a Class I hitch, which has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. The 300 lb chair and lift you mention would seriously overload the hitch, which would damage the hitch and result in the loss of the carrier and the power chair during transport, which would be bad.
Your best bet would be to use a different tow vehicle, one that's capable of using a Class III hitch that has a tongue weight capacity of at least 350 lbs.

From my research on your 2016 Nissan Altima, it is not recommended to tow a trailer or vehicle dolly. The trailer hitch receivers made for your vehicle like the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24796 you referenced are light duty Class I trailer hitch receivers designed for carrying accessories such as a cargo carrier or bike rack.
If you do decide to tow with your vehicle you will need a custom vehicle wiring harness like the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole... view full answer...
