Will Thule Tram Ski Adapter Fit Hollywood Racks Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack on 2012 Honda Odyssey

Question:

Do you need to have a Thule bike rack to use this? We have the Hollywood 5 bike bike rack that attaches to the hitch on our 2012 Honda Odessey. I am looking for a way to transport skis. We currently have a naked roof on the Odessey.

The Thule Tram, # TH9033, has only been test fit on Thule trailer hitch mount bike racks (listed on the Tram product page). Out of the racks that are on that list and still available, all of them have arms that are spaced closer together than the Hollywood Racks 5 bike racks arms so it is not likely the best fit and I do not recommend it.

Going with a roof rack would be the way to go. There is currently only one option for a compatible roof rack and it consists of the following:

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711400
Thule Top Track Roof Mount System, 42" Long # THTP42
Rapid Podium Feet # TH460R
Thule Fit Kit # THKIT3101

Then you can choose from the options of ski racks I've linked to best fit your needs.
