Hitch Recommendation for a 2007 Kia Rio for Light Towing
Question:
I am ready to purchase a hitch today for my 2007 Kia Rio, but I want your opinion on which hitch will fit. Also curious why I didnt see complete packages on your site. I had to add the hitch, the wiring, then hitch ball, and then the ball mount. It would help if you had complete packages listed that include everything. Ease of installation and wiring but mainly how long it will last. Thanks PS: My buying decision is based on how soon you answer this email also!

Since you are planning on doing some light towing with your 2007 Kia Rio sedan I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11094. To complete the towing setup you will also need a ball mount and part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball and/or # 19258 for a 2 inch hitch ball.
For trailer wiring you would want the part # 119178KIT.
I am sorry, we don't have kits on our site, but we are always readily available to create you a custom kit like this. Just let us know how we can help.
