Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2017 Lexus RX 350 F-Sport

Question

Question:

I was looking at the Curt Hitch for the 2017 Lexus RX 350 F-sport. Looks like the part #C13272 fits both base model and F-sport. Is this correct?

Actually, the only trailer hitch currently available that's confirmed to fit the F Sport model of your 2017 Lexus RX 350 is the Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver; either the part # 391LXRX16T if you ever plan on doing any towing or # 391LXRX16 if you only plan on using it for hitch-mounted accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier. Both offer a 350 pound tongue weight capacity (along with a 3,500 pound towing limit for the # 391LXRX16T) and feature a completely hidden design when not in use.

I have attached the install instructions for these hitches that you can check out as well.

The Draw-Tite Max-Frame # 75540 and Stealth # 391LXRX16 and # 391LXRX16T all exclude the F Sport. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13272 has had customers that have stated a fit, but the manufacturer has not been able to confirm it yet.

The Curt Hitch #C73DR will not fit on your 2022 Lexus RX 350 F Sport, it only fits the non-sport version. There is not a hitch for the sport version of your RX 350, but could help you fit a roof rack if that would help.

According to Curt, the Curt Hitch #C73DR will not fit the F-Sport version of your 2021 Lexus RX350. In fact, we do not currently have a hitch that is compatible with your Lexus. Even all of our trunk bike racks have been excluded due to the spoiler.…

There's a possibility you could add enough washers to the install hardware of the Draw Tite hitch part #75540 to allow it to fit under the rear bumper without trimming but since that would void the warranty of the hitch we cannot recommend that.…

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…
