Will the Thule Helium Aero Pro Fit on a 2015 Toyota Highlander

Even though we have tested the Thule Helium Aero # TH9042PRO on a 2013 Toyota Highlander it is always good to take some measurements so that you make sure it will clear the rear bumper on your 2015 Highlander since we don't know what trailer hitch you have.

From the center of the hitch pin hole to the anti-rattle hand knob measures 4-1/2", then to the lever for tilting the bike rack measures 11-1/4", and to the back of the post measures 14-3/8". Typically it's just the hand knob measurement that could possibly cause an issue.

Attached is a picture showing these dimensions as well as a review video of this bike rack on a 2013 Toyota Highlander for you to check out.

You may also be interested in the Softride Soft Hook-and-Loop Tie Downs # SR54FR to help keep your front tire from potentially damaging another bike or making contact with your vehicle. If any of your bikes have an alternative frame that doesn't have a horizontal cross tube like a traditional man's bike then an adapter bar like part # UB01 is recommended. This will help keep your bike level and increase ground clearance.
