Expert Reply:
If your 2013 Subaru Impreza STi is a hatchback then the trailer hitch that fits is # C11120. If it is a sedan model then you would need hitch # C11317.
Since you want to use the hitch for a bike rack then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch. I have linked the compatible bike racks for you.
Curt also says you have to use stabilization strap # 18050 when using this hitch for any non-trailer load (such as a bike rack or cargo carrier) per their warranty requirements.
