Good question, and I checked directly with Thule and can verify for you that yes, the T2 Pro XTR bike rack is rated for use behind a motorhome, and a 170 inch wheelbase is 100 percent safe for using the rack. Thule even displays this in the directions, as you can see by the cut out I added. The correct part number for the rack is the following:

- Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # TH83JV

The T2 Pro XTR # TH83JV is a superb choice for a bike rack, as it is super simple to use, installing in your hitch with just the twist of a knob at the front of the rack so there are no tools required. It has wheels so you can roll it to your hitch if you like instead of having to carry it, and comes with locks for the rack and your bikes to keep them safe and sound.

It also has a 60 lb per-bike capacity and fits tires up to 5 inches wide so even if you have heavier e-bikes, the T2 Pro XTR will be able to transport them without issue.
