• Recommended 2 Inch Trailer Hitch for 2018 Subaru Impreza Hatchback
• You are correct that there are a couple 2 inch trailer hitches available for your 2018 Subaru Impreza, the EcoHitch # 306-X7350 and the Draw-Tite # 76209. The primary difference between the two models is their visibility behind the vehicle which is why I recommend the EcoHitch # 306-X7350. The EcoHitch features a unique hidden design where only the 2 inch receiver will actually be visible behind the Impreza. The Draw-Tite model on the other hand is extremely visible and on the Impreza...

• Roof Rack and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2019 Subaru Impreza with Naked Roof
• The roof rack I recommend for your 2019 Subaru Impreza with a naked roof is the custom fit Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK285 because this rack has aero shaped crossbars which are very quiet, the rack installs easily, and is one of the higher quality roof racks but is at a much better price that similar brands. Then for a bike rack the Thule Upride part # TH599000 would be what I recommend as well. This carrier fits the Rhino rack well and allows you to keep...

• Recommended Trunk-Mount Bike Rack for 2014 Subaru Impreza Sport
• For your 2014 Subaru Impreza Hatchback Sport, I recommend the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 2 Bike Carrier # HRF2.

The high-rise frame and multiple strap mounting options will prevent any damage to the spoiler or your vehicle. It is confirmed to fit your Impreza and can hold up to 2 bikes at 35 pounds each. The carrier features durable anti-sway cradles with soft rubber straps that will secure...

• Can you Get Just the Foot Pads for Thule Roof Racks
• Thule does not offer the foot pads alone of their roof racks. We do have the fit kits that are available to your 2013 Subaru Impreza, though. I was unable to find which roof rack you have based on the numbers you gave me, but the two Thule fit kits available for your Impreza are: Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet- 3068 - part # THKIT3068 Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp Roof Rack Feet - 5178 - part # TH145178

• Which Trailer Hitch for 2019 Subaru Impreza Will Have Best Ground Clearance
• When we installed the Draw Tite hitch # 76209 on a similar Impreza as your 2019 model we found that the ground clearance was right at 8 inches. The EcoHitch part # 306-X7350 would actually have the best ground clearance as only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper. This allows for better ground clearance around corners where the rear of the vehicle would be angled and also where most ground clearance issues happen.

• 2007 Subaru Impreza Hitch Compatibility with Dirt Bike Motorcyle
• The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11497 is a confirmed fit for a 2007 Subaru Impreza. It is rated for 200 lbs tongue weight but won't allow for the 2 inch opening for your motorcycle carrier. Using an adapter would reduce your capacity by 50%, and would also need to include the carrier weight. With your dirt bike weighing around 190 pounds, we do not have a cargo carrier option that would allow you to stay within the weight capacity of the trailer hitch. The...

• Compatibility of 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver with 2008 Subaru Impreza 2.5i 4 Door Sedan
• At this time there is not a 2 inch hitch option available for your 2008 Subaru Impreza sedan from any of our manufacturers. The EcoHitch # 306-X7261 is a fit for the WRX models, but is not compatible with your Sedan. I reached out to the manufacturer and although they haven't tested it for a fit, they think the frame would line up but the trim would be an issue. There is not a 2 inch option available for your vehicle as it has a very limited capacity, so only Class I hitches like #...

• Recommended Thule Roof Rack Feet For 2009 Subaru Impreza Hatchback
• I have a replacement option for you, but unfortunately there is not a fit kit made to use the Thule Traverse feet on your 2009 Subaru Impreza Hatchback. Instead I recommend Rapid Podium Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH460R and Fit Kit # THKIT3068 which are confirmed to fit your Subaru Impreza as long as you have a bare roof. If you have factory raised roof rails that run front to back you will need the Evo Raised Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710401 instead. Both of these feet are compatible...

• Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2018 Subaru Impreza Towing Trailer
• You'll need a few things to tow a small trailer with your 2018 Subaru Impreza including a hitch like you mentioned. You'll also need wiring to operate the trailer lights, a ball mount to hold the hitch ball that the trailer connects to and a hitch ball that the coupler of the trailer attaches to. For a hitch I recommend the Draw Tite hitch part # 76209, which is a custom fit for your vehicle, because it has a 2 inch hitch opening which means it has great towing capacities and because it...

• Recommended Bike Rack To Carry At Least 3 Bikes On 2015 Subaru Impreza
• There are a couple of options for you that will work with your 2015 Subaru Impreza. You can go with a trunk mounted bike rack which will not have a 4 bike option, or you can go with a hitch mounted rack. The Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack # TH56BV is my recommendation for your Impreza. It comes with all the integrated locking features to keep your bikes and the rack itself secure to your vehicle. This rack is rated for bikes up to 33 lbs each. For any hanging bike rack, I recommend using...

You'll want to measure the distance between the crossbars on center and as long as they are between 24 and 28 inches apart this box will fit and work well.

• 2013 Subaru WRX Impreza Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation
• Since your 2013 Impreza is a WRX wagon the trailer wiring you would need is a hardwire kit and not the custom install kit part # HM11143865 that you referenced. The # 119250KIT is the way to go. Instead of hardwiring to taillight circuits it uses sensors that clamp around them instead so you don't have to make any permanent modifications.

• Install Procedure for Curt Class I # C11286 Trailer Hitch on 2015 Subaru Impreza Hatchback
• According to my Curt representative, the install procedure for the # C11286 Curt Class I hitch hasn't changed from the 2014 model year to the 2015. This particular hitch is a fit for 5 door hatchback models with single exhausts only. The Curt hitch warranty stipulates that a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 be used on all non-trailer loads like bike racks or cargo carriers. The problem is that on many vehicles, there isn't a convenient place for the strap to attach to the vehicle (especially...

• Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2007 Subaru Impreza Hatchback
• The trailer hitches that are available for your 2007 Subaru Impreza all top out at 200 pounds tongue weight so you would need a different way to carry the motorcycle. Basically, using the Impreza the motorcycle would have to be on a trailer. This is actually much safer and easier on the vehicle than a hitch mounted carrier. If your Impreza is a WRX but not an STi model then you can use Curt trailer hitch # C11497. The proper ball mount is # 3593. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for...
