Question:
I own a 2016 Subaru Impreza Hatchback with stock exhaust. I am looking for a 2inch hitch that would fit without bottoming out. Can you recommend a product? Dimensions for ride height would also be useful. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
Since your 2016 Subaru Impreza is a smaller vehicle there isn't a 2 inch hitch available for it. There are only Class I 1-1/4 inch hitches like the Curt # C11286.
When we installed this hitch on a very similar 2014 Impreza we found that it measured 10-1/2 inches from the top of the hitch opening down to the ground. From the bottom of the hitch to the ground would be right at 9 inches.
Check out the install video I attached as well.
For a ball mount you would want the part # C45521, 1-7/8 inch ball part # 19256 or for a 2 inch ball # 19258. For trailer wiring part # C59496.
