For your application with the EcoHitch # 306-X7257 I recommend using the Hollywood Racks Road Runner 5 Bike Carrier # HR520.
This isn't a platform rack and as such only weighs 37-1/2 lbs; the pin system on this is a standard locking pin which will be simple to install. Just make sure you install the pin prior to cranking down on the anti-rattle handle at the front.

I recommend the Yakima Jet Stream kit for your application, based on the shape of the previous bars you had. This kit provides you with aero shaped bars that are very similar to the 2011 Subaru Impreza's factory bars.
This rack installs into the fixed points on your roof, however is not compatible if you have a glass roof on your Subaru.
The kit consists of:
JetStream Crossbars, 50 inches, part # Y00425
SkyLine Towers, part # Y53TR
Landing Pad 11 for Yakima Towers, part # Y00233

The Yakima JetStream Crossbar System part # Y00425, part # Y53TR, and part # Y00248 is a great option for a 2020 Subaru WRX and it will work on models with a sunroof. That said, you need to be mindful when using the sunroof with the roof rack attached as you will have a reduced overhead clearance with the rack installed but there are no other issues aside from this according to Yakima. It does mount in the factory fixed points. view full answer...
Yes, I checked with Thule and the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT is a confirmed fit for your 2013 Subaru WRX Hatchback. If you like, you can also add the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders part # TH450400 which will allow you to lock the basket to your vehicle or the Extension Piece part # TH8591XT to provide you with an additional 20" of space. view full answer...
There is a high-quality option for a roof rack and roof-mounted bike rack for your 2022 Subaru WRX, but I checked with the manufacturers, and there are no trunk-mounted bike racks for your Subaru. So you'll need to go with a roof rack, and starting with the rack, the option that fit is from Thule, and consists of the following parts:
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Silver # TH711300 or Black # TH711320
- Evo Fixpoint Feet for Thule Evo Crossbars # TH49SC
- Fit Kit # TH88RE

Not only is the size of the trailer hitch receiver important, but also the class is important. The Yakima Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" Hitches # Y02445 is only to be used on class 2 receivers so it will not work on your class 1 receiver. This is for a couple reasons, one being that class 1 receivers are not designed to hold the weight of some accessories, such as this class 2 bike rack. The second reason is that some hitch manufacturers actually weld in a stopper which blocks... view full answer...
The correct fit kit to mount the (discontinued) Thule Rapid Traverse foot pack TH480R to your 2015 Subaru WRX is the discontinued part THKIT1649. Thule has been doing a complete remake of their products and so basically all of their roof rack and bike racks have been changed to a newer style that better accommodates newer vehicles. I reached out to my contact at Thule to see if the newer fit kit will work with the Rapid Traverse foot pack but he said that none of those parts are interchangeable.

The biggest difference is fit; the Thule TopRide Roof Bike Rack # TH75JV fits bikes with a 9-mm quick-release skewer, 9-mm captive, 12-mm and 15-mm thru-axle, and 12-mm and 15-mm Boost thru-axle.
The Thule FastRide # TH95JV only fits bikes with a 9-mm captive or 9-mm quick-release skewer, and requires Thru-Axle Adapters # TH58BV to use the rack with 9-mm, 12-mm, or 15-mm thru-axle forks (both require Boost Thru-Axle Adapter # TH38BV for a 20-mm x 110-mm Boost thru-axle).

The Glacier Chains Snow Tire Chains # PW1038 are confirmed to fit the 245/40 R18 sized tires on your 2014 Subara STi. These are constructed of wire cross cables with spring rollers wrapped around them so they are considered spring style chains. They're also SAE Class S so they're designed for vehicles with little clearance for tire chains.

That's a tricky question that would be very difficult to answer. The hitches are designed to fit around a stock exhaust. If your aftermarket exhaust sits exactly where the stock exhaust would, then the # 306-X7257 EcoHitch would fit perfectly for you. However, if the aftermarket exhaust is positioned differently or is larger than the stock exhaust you might have problems getting everything to fit together.
My best advice would be to check out the linked install video, and pay very close... view full answer...
I do have a hitch pin lock that will work for you but unfortunately a Saris hitch pin lock will most likely not work for your Kuat Transfer, because the lock for the transfer screws into the bike rack not just into the hitch. The Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock for Kuat Transfer Bike Racks # HLT is going to be the hitch pin lock that is compatible with your Kuat Transfer bike rack. view full answer...
The crossbars on your new 2018 Subaru WRX should be an AeroBlade Edge kit, like part # TH7062-TH7603. For any future accessories, you'll want to look for those that fit the Thule AeroBlade type bars.
In the case of the Prologue, you're right on in that the XAdapt 9 kit, part # THXADAPT9 is the correct kit to adjust the Prologue to working on the Thule AeroBlade bars. view full answer...
There is a wiring harness available for your 2017 Subaru WRX, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56259. This will give you a 4-flat connector and will simply plug in to your Subaru's connection points behind the tail lights. I've added a link to a video review of this prodcut as well as a link to an installation video.
For the hitch I recommend the EcoHitch # 306-X7257, though this will only fit if your WRX has the center knock out panel in the lower rear fascia. This is a... view full answer...
The EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7257 weighs about 30 lbs. The good thing is the weight of the hitch itself does not count towards any weight capacities of your vehicle because it is attached to the frame. I have attached an installation video for your reference.
I recommend the EcoHitch because of it's 2" hitch receiver which is much more versatile when it comes to accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers. There are much more options for bike racks available... view full answer...
The WeatherTech Side Window Air Deflectors with Dark Tinting part # WT82472 install in the channel of your 2017 Subaru WRX doors. They also come with a limited lifetime warranty.

The Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning part # RR33200 can only be installed on crossbars with top channels which square crossbars don't have. Therefore, a better option would be the Yakima SlimShady Awning part # Y36VR which uses wraparound clamps. The height of the vehicle would not be an issue for either awning. view full answer...
Yes the Curt Bike Rack part # C18065 will fit and work great in the EcoHitch that fits your 2020 Subaru WRX part # 306-X7257.
There is enough clearance between the hitch pin hole and the back of the hitch/trunk pan for the rack to fit. view full answer...
While we do have an option for you to carry bikes with your 2019 Subaru WRX, the RockyMounts SplitRail LS 2-Bike Rack # RKY11404 you asked about requires the hitch pin hole be 1-1/2 inches away from the end (face) of the receiver, though this measurement is 1-1/8 (1.125) inches for the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7257.
I did find one bike rack that you can use that is similar to the SplitRail LS from Thule, which is the Thule T2 Pro XT. As you can see by the cut outs... view full answer...
The EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 306-X7257, has a distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outside edge of the receiver of 1-1/8". This is not enough to use the Thule EasyFold XT, part # TH903202, or any other Thule bike rack.
Instead, I recommend using the Kuat NV 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack, part # BA22B. It can hold two bikes up to 60 pounds each. It is a wheel-mount rack that has keyed-alike locks. I've linked to a video review of this below. view full answer...
Yes, the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # SH22G that you referenced will work perfectly with the EcoHitch Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7257 on your 2018 Subaru WRX. The Sherpa 2.0 features a length of 1-5/8 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the end of the shank, well under the max 2-1/2 inches that the EcoHitch will allow with a hitch-mounted accessory.
This is an excellent platform-style carrier that uses ratcheting hooks to firmly grip the front wheels on your bikes... view full answer...
