Based on where the lower foot on the Thule Archway has to go on your 2000 Nissan Maxima, I believe that it would make contact with the spoiler so I do not recommend this bike rack for you.

I recommend going with the Hollywood Racks Expedition, # HRF6-2. This rack will reach up and over the spoiler since it has a longer reach than many other racks. I have linked a video review of the rack for you.

If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # HRBA-PRO. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have to use these adapters and without them my wife's bike would be at a severe angle and I would not be able to load my son's bike at all.
