touring racks, and anyone using Nitto

Is anyone using the front rack Nitto m12? In the description of the product. It states that it does not fit all fork posts. Does anyone have measurements of any kind to direct me in knowing if it will work on my bike? Also, about what weight would you say it is good for holding or recommended. I am looking at the Nitto rear rack as well.

Is there other ones i should consider? i will not be doing any week long tours, at least not anytime soon. But is there other types you would recommend? I have access to various types through my shop but am trying to narrow it down based on expert advise...but since i couldn't do that. I came here. jk. But i was looking at the axiom streamliner, it's rated to 110 pounds! It may be overkill for me.

Details:
I am turning my Bianchi Cross cro-mo into an all rounder. I am 6' and weigh 170 pounds if those details matter regarding weight on total ride. Day trip rides and one overnighters to start. maybe a few more days at times. mostly country roads, rail to trails. no heavy off roads, dirt roads at most.

thanks in advance for any recommendations.
