Will Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Rack Fit 2012 Honda Odyssey

Question:

Is the Thule T2 Pro XT in a 4 bike configuration compatible with a 2012 Honda Odyssey using a Reese Towpower 51156 Class III Custom-Fit Hitch with 2inch Square Receiver. I measured approximately 4.5” from the hitch to the outer edge of the bumper. Thanks.

If there is a distance of 4-1/2 inches (or less) from the center of the hitch pin hole on the Reese Towpower trailer hitch for your Honda Odyssey to the outermost edge of the rear bumper then the Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Rack # TH83JV is fully compatible and will work great.

When the carrier is folded up for storage against the vehicle there is a distance of 5 inches from the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack. When it's down and in use this distance is stretched to 7 inches so there won't be any bumper interference in either of its configurations.

This is an excellent bike rack that features ratcheting hooks that secure to the front wheels of your bikes without any frame contact, adjustable trays to allow for optimal bike spacing, and integrated locks to help protect your investments. I have attached a video demonstration that you can check out as well.
