Hello John, thanks for reaching out. Yes, we do have a Thule roof rack that will allow you to install the Hullavator # TH898 on your 2015 Subaru Forester. For that I recommend the following:
- Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack for Raised Rails - Aluminum - Black - Qty 2 # TH54ZA
These 50" aero bars give you the side overhang the Hullavator needs to operate properly without hitting the vehicle. They also help keep wind noise down compared to square bars, which is nice for highway driving, and they’ll sit low enough that most customers don’t run into garage clearance issues, though that can vary depending on your exact setup.
What kind of kayaks do you have?
