For your 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon the EcoHitch part # 306-X7601 would be an excellent option for a hitch and would work well with the Thule bike rack part # TH83JV that you are also interested in.
This would give you one of the nicest bike racks around to use in a hitch that will be mainly out of sight on your Outback so it would be a great setup that you'd really like. What's great about the T2 bike rack you mentioned too is that it only touches the bikes at the tire so you don't have to worry about the delicate finish of your bike possibly getting damaged. I attached a review video for this rack installed on a similar Outback as yours as well.
