The Vortex Aero crossbars use a slim, elliptical shape and built-in rubberized Vortex strips to cut down on wind noise and drag. The evenly spaced grooves in the strips break up airflow, so you don’t get that constant whistling sound at highway speeds. You don’t need to add a fairing, and you’ll notice how much quieter your ride feels even when the roof is loaded up.
These bars finish flush with the legs for a smooth, from-the-factory appearance. Nothing sticks out past the sides, giving the whole setup a clean, aerodynamic profile that looks like it belongs there. It keeps the style neat while also helping airflow move more easily over the roof.
The crossbars are made from lightweight, structural-grade anodized aluminum with internal H-shaped extrusions for extra strength. They won’t rust or corrode, so it’s a system you can leave in place year-round. The UV-treated, glass-reinforced nylon legs stand up to weather exposure and heavy use on long trips without fading or failing.

This rack shows up nearly ready to go, with crossbars already connected to the legs and pre-cut to match your roof width. The included fit kit has brackets, rubberized foot pads, and tools that make bolt-on installation straightforward. Decals and diagrams guide you through placement so everything lines up cleanly without guesswork.
Each bar includes a built-in C-channel for mounting channel-style carriers like bike racks, watersport cradles, or ski holders. The three-piece Vortex strips make it easy to slide mounts into place without cutting full-length rubber inserts. You can also attach clamp-on accessories directly on top—the rubber strips cushion them and keep gear steady on every drive.

It has been amazing. Looks new and solid on roof. Would buy again if needed.

Product is fine. Would recommend anyone adding a rack to an older car that has never had one to take the time and use a tap to rethread the mounting points. Because I didnt the rack is not connected as perfectly as I wanted. This is not a complaint about the Rhino Rack - just a tip for installing racks on older cars.
