What Trunk Mounted Bike Rack is Recommended for a 2015 Lexus RX 350
Question:
I am shopping for a 2 bike rack I can place on the back of my 2015 RX 350. Its a lease vehicle so dont want to install a hitch. Need a rack can strap on back of vehicle. Is the Hollywood 2 bike rack the best? Thank you.

Unfortunately, the Hollywood Racks is not a fit for your RX 350. Instead, as long as you do not have a spoiler, I can recommend the Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack # SA803 to be mounted to your trunk.
If you do have the rear spoiler you would need to add a hitch to your Lexus in order to carry bikes. I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e22TR and a bike rake like the Thule Camber # TH9058.
I've added links to view how both trunk mounted racks are installed on vehicles so you can see how they might mount to yours. I also included links for the hitch and the Thule Camber hitch bike rack.
