On your 2015 Subaru Forester, the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75876 you installed has a hitch pin hole center that is 5 inches behind the outermost part of the bumper.

The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 Platform 2 Bike Rack w/Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # HR1450Z-85 has a measurement of 8-1/2 inches from the center of hitch pin hole to closest part of rack, and 12 inches from the closest wheel hoop, so you will not have any issues using this rack. This bike rack has keyed alike locks for the hitch pin and the cable lock, so your bikes will be secured.

When not using the cargo carrier, this bike rack is expandable to 4 bikes using the 2 Bike Add-On for Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 for 2" Hitches # HR1475Z.
