Expert Answers about Toyota Corolla iM


  • What Thule Roof Rack Will Fit My 2017 Toyota Corolla IM
  • I can definitely get a roof rack setup that will work with your 2017 Toyota Corolla IM. However, this vehicle is not compatible with the Thule Rapid Traverse Foot or the standard Thule Traverse Foot, so you cannot use the Traverse Fit Kit 1198. We do have a Thule roof rack fit for your vehicle. If you are using a Rapid Traverse Foot, you will be able to use the existing crossbars. However, if you have a standard Traverse Foot you will need to get crossbars. Your Thule rack will consist...

  • Best Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack for a 2020 Toyota Prius
  • The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2020 Toyota Prius is the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24966 which is a direct bolt-on fit so you don't have to worry about having to drill into your vehicle or make any major modifications. The Draw-Tite Hitch has a hidden design so you won't take away from the factory-like appearance and it won't reduce your ground clearance as much. In order to mount your bikes, the Thule EasyFold XT 2 E-Bike Platform Rack part # TH903202 is...

  • Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Toyota Corolla iM for Carrying Bike Rack
  • For your 2017 Toyota Corolla iM the hitch you are going to want is the Draw Tite # 24952. It does not require the stabilizer strap like the Curt # C11420 does when carrying a bike rack so it would be the way to go. It also has a better price. The Draw Tite isn't necessarily stronger or weaker than the Curt. The strap recommendation is a warranty thing that Curt came up with. They tend to just be a bit more cautious than Draw Tite. For your bikes and rack the Draw Tite would work well.

  • Best Tow Dolly for a 2017 Toyota Corolla iM
  • The best tow dolly for a 2017 Toyota Corolla iM is the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly part # DM9713045. The reason for this and the feature that sets it apart from all others is that is addresses the main issue people have with using a tow dolly in that it takes up too much space at the camp site. The Demco Kar Kaddy has a folding tongue so it has a much smaller footprint taking up much less space. In regards to maneuvering the dolly around, the caster wheel on the tongue jack will makes...

This also includes the safety cables. Then for your vehicle wiring, you already have the cable to connect between vehicles and the 6-way connector from the tow...

  • Recommended Crossbars For A 2018 Toyota Corolla iM
  • Sure thing! So the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs RR63GR is actually no longer available, however I do have another great option for you.

  • How to Carry Bikes While Flat Towing a 2018 Toyota Corolla iM
  • Thank you for all of the info and the pictures! I believe from everything you are saying that you are trying to use the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain Tow Bar # RM-522 and the Swagman G10 S64682 with your Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-2. You may be able to use the Curt Dual 2" Receiver Tube Adapter # D-192 instead but it only has 3-1/4" of clearance between the top of the bottom receiver tube and the bottom of the top receiver tube so I'm not sure if you will have enough...

  • Using Roadmaster Tow Bar Adapted for Blue Ox Base Plates with Roadmaster Base Plates
  • The Roadmaster EZ5 Base Plate Kit # RM-521195-5 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2018 Toyota Corolla iM. These base plates are directly compatible with Roadmaster tow bars that slide into a trailer hitch like your existing Falcon 2 # RM-520. It sounds like you may have been using the Falcon 2 with Blue Ox base plates before, which required you to install adapters like # RM-031 on the tow bar.

  • Dingy Towing for 2017/2018 Toyota Corolla iM
  • The 2017 and 2018 Toyota Corolla IM are both capable of being flat towed if equipped with a manual transmission. If they have an automatic it will have to be dolly or trailer towed. For a Tow dolly I recommend the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1. For Flat towing it will require a few things to be added. The first is the Base Plate # RM-521195-5. I recommend this as its a direct connect base plate that doesn't require use of a cross bar. That means less parts to connect...

  • For your 2017 Toyota Corolla iM the Rhino Rack roof rack you mentioned that consists of part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK347 is a confirmed fit. Then to add locks to the kit you'd need the # RRVA-LEC4 and you'd be set. I really like the Rhino Rack roof racks as you get a higher quality rack at a lower price. Now for a kayak carrier the Yakima JayLow part # Y04073 would be a great option that would work well to carry the kayak and for attaching to the crossbars. For a bike...
