Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2016 Nissan Altima

Question:

We really need a bike rack for our 2016 Nissan Altima that we dont have to worry about damaging our car our the paint. Can you recommend the most reliable model that you carry that could hold 2 bikes

The Yakima Fullback part # Y02634 is a great option for a trunk bike rack for your 2016 Nissan Altima. It will easily carry your two bikes and will not damage the painted surface of your vehicle as long as you keep the bike rack mounting pads and the paint of your vehicle clean. It also help to wax the vehicle where the rack will install too as that helps keep the paint protected.

We recently test fit this rack on a 2016 Altima just like yours and it worked great. Check out the video link I attached to see the test fit.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
