Will The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver Work With The Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack 2015 Lexus NX 200t?
Question:
Hi, I just bought my first mountain bike and want to get a hitch and bike rack for my car. I was planning on purchasing the 75956 hitch reciever and the S64671 bike rack. Would these be good options for me? Thanks

Yes, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75956 and Swagman XTC2 TILT Bike Rack # S64671 are compatible and good options for your 2015 Lexus NX 200t. Do note this bike rack is only capable of hauling 2 bikes up to 35lbs each with a maximum tire width of 2-1/2". If you have the wider tires on your mountain bike you will need the larger Hoops # S64674 for each bike to fit fat tires up to 5" wide.
I do recommend installing the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56268 when you install the receiver. This will give you a 4-way flat connector which is commonly found on small trailers you may need to tow one day. It will also allow you to use Auxiliary Lights # C53201 should parts of your bike impair the view of your tail lights to other drivers.
