I thought about buying a roof rack, ended up going with a tow hitch bike carrier.

What tires are you running ?

im running 245/40 and the offset is factory. i been looking to put a -3 camber kit on my rear after i put my new rear rims on

oh yea about the roof rack is way better then the one in the trunk . it also looks so much better and is easier to mount the bikes then the trunk one. the only thing is that is a lot more money.

Well the advantage with the hitch is it can carry 4 bikes or 4 skis without having to hoist on the roof and scratch the paint, and can tow a small trailer also. Less aerodynamic drag with the hitch also.

you got a point there on the aerodynamics but the roof rack doesn't scratch up the paint at all and i can carry 4 bikes to is just that i only have to rails right now. i been meaning to get a hitch so i can take out my jet ski but im scared cause my car would rub nasty if i attach the jet ski on the back of my car that's a lot of weight pulling down on the rear im already dropped and on 20's
