Question:
Will the subject Swagman hitch bike rack fit my 2008 BMW X3 with a Curt Hitch #13573?
asked by: RH D
Expert Reply:
The Curt Hitch # 13573 that you referenced would be a great choice for your 2008 BMW X3 for a hitch and would work well with the Swagman Trailhead 2 Bike Carrier # S63360.
Check out the installation instructions and video I attached for these products.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without a horizontal top tube you might also be interested in purchasing a Thule Bike Adapter Bar # TH982XT to provide a horizontal top tube for the rack to attach to. I attached a review video for this product for you to check out also.
