Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2003 Pontiac Vibe

Question:

Hello, I need a hitch for my Vibe that has a 2inch receiver. W hat do you suggest? Everything I see is a 1 1/4 receiver. This is for a bike rack that has a 2inch not a 1 1/4, dont want to reduce down, will add too much play and bounce. Thanks,

2 inch hitches are only used on larger vehicles like trucks and SUVs that have higher towing capacities. For your 2003 Pontiac Vibe you would have to go with a 1-1/4 inch hitch like the part # 24812 and a bike rack compatible with a Class I hitch like this.

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack part # S64670. This rack has a ton of positive reviews from our customers who have tried it. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
