Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2009 Honda Civic SI Sedan
Question:
I am attempting to choose the least visible hitch for my 2009 Civic SI sedan and I am not sure which one to choose, and the Curt will be less visible. My plan is to use this on the weekends to carry a platform bike rack. Do you have a comparison picture of both styles of rack stacked on top of each other with the mounting holes aligned? Thanks.

The hitch you will want for your 2009 Honda Civic SI sedan is the Curt hitch part # C11391.This hitch has a1-1/4 inch receiver opening, a 200lb tongue weight. If you intend to use this hitch for a bike rack, you would also need the stabilizer strap.
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.
