I recommend using the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 13514 because of the durable powder coating that Curt uses on their hitches; it's just a bit thicker than some other manufacturers and is going to stand up to scratches and nicks a bit better over time. This hitch will give you a 2" receiver that's ideal for carrying hitch mounted accessories like bike racks or even cargo carriers and typically 2" receivers are going to give you a better selection of bike racks that can carry more bikes.

I've linked a review and installation video of this hitch for you to check out, as well as our entire selection of bike racks that will fit in 2" receivers in case you don't have an existing rack.
