Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For A 2016 Lexus RX 350 To Haul Two Rad Rover Fat Tire E-Bikes

Question:

I need help with my 2016 RX 350. It doesn’t have a tow package so the dealer won’t even talk to me about a bike rack! I’m not towing I just want a hitch for a bike rack and carry 2 Rad Rover fat tire bikes weighing about 69 lbs each …

For your 2016 Lexus RX 350 I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # e94AR. This hitch is a custom fit for your Lexus and has a simple bolt-on installation. It has a rugged, matte black finish for superior rust protection to last a lifetime.

Currently the only bike rack we have available with a high enough rated per bike weight capacity is the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # LGA77FR. It has a per bike weight capacity of 75lbs and fits a maximum tire width of 4.5". The V-shaped, wheel-mount design ensures level transport of most bikes, regardless of size and frame style. The support arms hold the bikes by the wheels and prevent frame or fork contact while the cushioned pads prevent scratches from bike-to-rack contact.
