Bike Rack Recommendation for 2011 Chevy Camaro SS Convertible with Curt Hitch
Question:
Hi, I ordered this hitch for my 2011 SS convertible recently, and I'd like to find an appropriate bike rack (2 hybrid pedal bikes) to go with it. I prefer a platform style rack but I wonder if there would be enough ground clearance on a car like the Camaro? Please give me a couple recommendations to look at. Thanks, Paul

Hey Paul, the Curt hitch part # C11222 that you ordered for your 2011 Chevy Camaro Convertible can carry a bike rack but you would need it to be a Class I rated bike rack. Your vehicle does have a bit lower ground clearance but nothing out of the ordinary so it shouldn't be too big of a concern.
So for a bike rack that fits this hitch and would help with ground clearance the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z would be a great option as it's a platform rack like you are looking for and it has a 5 inch rise built into the shank to help get it further off the ground. It's also priced really great for how nice of a rack it is.
