Hitch Receiver Clearance from Outermost Part of Bumper on 2017 Lexus CT 200h
Question:
I have a CT200h 2017 model not an F-Sport. Looks like this hitch works perfectly. Before I buy, I would like to know the gap between the hitch and the bumper. this is important to ensure my bike rack can be used and stowed in the hitch without having to add any kind of extender. Since the tongue weight is so low, I would prefer not to add any extender to my hitch. Please see attached picture for clarification. Thanks again for your assistance in this regard.

For your 2017 Lexus CT 200h, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11200 will have a 4 inch measurement from the hitch pin hole to the outermost part of your bumper just like you can see in the attached video of a 2013 model. This will help you determine the best fit for accessories like a bike rack, cargo carrier, or ball mount.
As long as the measurement of your bike rack from folded position to hitch pin hole exceeds the 4 inches you will be good to go. It is recommended to use the Curt stability strap # 18050 with this hitch when using an accessory like a bike rack.
