The hitch I recommend is the Curt # C92UR. This hitch is a confirmed fit your 2018 Honda Civic and it gives you a nice clean look because the cross tube is hidden behind the rear bumper. All you see sticking out is the receiver opening and the safety chain loops. It's a bit of work to install it but it's worth it in the end. I've linked the install details for you.

A great bike rack for you is the Thule EasyFold XT, part # TH903202. The rack supports heavy bikes up to 65 pounds each and tires up to 3 inches wide. So, if you decide to get different bikes sometime there's a good chance the rack will still work for you.

The EasyFold XT also has locks for both the rack and for the bikes. I've linked a video that shows it off a bit for you.
