Question:
Hello, I am trying to buy a Hitch for my Honda odyssey 2015 with Touring trim. Mostly i am going to use the hitch to carry my 4 bikes around but i was told that the ground clearance is very less once you install the hitch. Can you please suggest couple of options with higher Ground clearance for Honda Odyssey 2015 with Touring trim? Thanks

Having low ground clearance at the rear of a minivan is the nature of the beast. Of the hitches we offer for your 2015 Odyssey, the Curt Class II hitch, part # C12031 would offer the most clearance, about 12 inches under the receiver which is about 2-1/2 inches more than what you'd get from the Draw-Tite # 36419 or other hitch options.
If you were planning on towing with the hitch, you'd need the following to complete your towing system:
Trailer wiring harness w/ 4 pole connector, part # 118521
Ball mount, part # 36071
1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19256 or 2 inch trailer ball, part # 19256
