The Draw Tite hitch part # 75876 is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Subaru Forester and would be a great choice for carrying a platform bike rack. Any local shop that installs hitches would have no problem installing this hitch either as the install is very basic.
I really like the Saris SuperClamp EX part # SA4025F.
This is a platform bike rack that only touches the bike at the tires and only weighs 35 lbs. The biggest drawback to platform bike racks has always been the weight of them, but with this rack you get the best of both worlds. The preferred attachment style with the lighter weight.
