Question:

My wife has this tow hitch for her 2008 Mini Hardtop. I have a 2017 Subaru Forester with the Class III Drawtite hitch. We are looking for your recommendation for the best 2 bike hitch rack that would work for either car/hitch combo. Thanks!

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit both vehicles is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
