Bike rack rentals in Italy?

Hello-
We're making our first trip to tour Italy in the coming months.

I'm trying to rent a car, but cannot find an option for bike racks. Does anyone have experience with renting a bicycle rack over in Italy? Can you even rent one?

Any information/help is appreciated.

the cheapest rack that I have seen that will fit any car is a car tyre inner tube.
I've seen a photo of someone carrying their tandem on a hire car using this method.
Where are you going in Italy?
