Default bike rack needed

Hello, I want a bike rack for my c6. I tried a Curt trailer hitch receiver and have horrible rattling noise. What are my options? Thank you.

Sounds like a fair trade to me

Not sure of manufacturer, but saw this at a local car show I was in. This is why I hike instead of bike......

Do you have a hitch? If so, Kuat makes a great rack. I've also heard 1Up makes a good light weight rack but I don't have any experience with them.

Is the hitch or the rack? If the hitch is rattling it might be the mufflers contacting the rack. I have the Curt hitch on my vette and had to add some 1/4inch shims between the frame and the hitch so it didn't contact the mufflers. If it's your rack there are adapters you can get that will stop the rattling.
