• Is the CurtTrailer Hitch, # C12225 Class I or Class II
• The CurtTrailer Hitch Receiver Hitch, # C12225, for the 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix is actually a class II hitch so it will not have the protrusion that will prohibit Class II devices. The protusion that you have heard about is on the Class I hitches since they can be easily overloaded when using a Class II device. So that protrusion is there as a safety precaution. This will not be a problem for you since this Curt hitch is a class II.

• Compatibility of Hitch for 2005 Chevy Impala and 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix
• A hitch designed for a 2005 Chevy Impala would not be compatible with a 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix. Although the vehicles are fairly similar, the differences in the hitch attachment points between the two vehicles are significant enough to make it impossible to interchange the hitches. For your 2007 Grand Prix, I would recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class II - 1-1/4" # C12225. If you need to wire the vehicle for trailer lights, I recommend the Curt T-Connector,...

• Since the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver 24659 you got for your 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix is a Class I hitch I don't recommend using an adapter like the Brophy # HT5R because it reduces the weight rating of your hitch receiver by 50% and it causes more movement while going down the road. The Draw-Tite hitch you purchased has a tongue weight rating of 200 lbs so by using this adapter you have 100 lbs to work with, both for the rack and your bike. Technically you can do this...

• The Thule CG9 Tire Chains, part # TH2004205104, will fit the 255/45R18 tire size. We may have chains that will fit that tire size but if your owners manual states not to use chains on your 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix GXP, you cannot use chains.
