Question:

Looking for a 2inch hitch receiver for a 2012 Impreza Sport. Im not planning on towing, Id just like to continue using my bike rack that holds two bikes and requires a 2inch receiver. If one is not made, can you recommend a Class 1 hitch for the same car, one that preferably has most of the hitch hidden. Thank you,

I wish there was a hitch available for your 2012 Subaru Impreza that had a 2 inch opening, but at this time all we have is Class I hitches with a 1-1/4 inch opening.

The Curt Trailer Hitch # C11120 that your referenced would be a good hitch as long as you have Quad Exhaust on your vehicle. If you have single exhaust you would want a Curt Hitch # C11286. I attached instructions for both hitches.

As far as how hidden they will be, I attached a picture that shows both of these hitches installed to give you an idea of how much of the hitch you will see once installed.

I also attached a link to a page that shows all of the hitch mounted bike racks that will work on a Class I hitch.
