Expert Reply:

Like you said, replacement strap # 853-7006 is the correct replacement for the Thule Sidearm bike rack.

The other strap, # 753-3001, is designed for the Thule Echelon, Doubletrack, and Big Mouth bike racks and will not fit the Sidearm. So the best option for your Sidearm bike rack is # 853-7006.

Would these straps be compatible with older models of the Thule T2 hitch bike rack? I need longer straps for my plus size tires and looking at the pictures it seems like they would fit.

If you have the older T2 Classic, you could actually use the Replacement Strap # 8527642001, which is specifically designed for wider fat tire bikes.
