When you’re loading up for a trip, you want crossbars that can handle real weight without flexing or rusting. These Inno square bars are made from hardened steel and coated with an elastomeric finish that protects against corrosion. With a 220-lb weight capacity (always check your vehicle’s roof load limit), they give you the solid foundation you need for kayaks, canoes, cargo boxes, or camping gear.
Everything you need comes in one box—two 50" square crossbars, four square bar feet, and a custom fit kit. There’s no hunting down extra parts or guessing what fits together. The rack installs to fixed mounting points on your roof, giving you a secure setup that feels built-in once tightened down.
When your gear is sitting up top, peace of mind matters. Each leg has a lockable cover that helps deter theft of the rack itself. Once locked, the bars stay put so you can leave your parked vehicle without worry during road trips or overnight stops.
The square bar design works with carriers and attachments that clamp around the bars—perfect for hauling kayaks, paddleboards, or cargo boxes from different brands. If you already have gear that uses clamp-on mounts, these bars let you keep using what you own without any special adapters.
The black steel construction not only performs but also blends in nicely with most vehicle rooflines. It looks clean and purposeful rather than bulky, giving your setup a sturdy yet understated appearance whether you’re driving across town or heading out on a long-distance adventure.
Ratings & Reviews
Product is great, pretty easy to install. Customer service was also great
I am more than pleased by the service that I had at etrailer. I was looking for a very old roof rack for my Subaru Legacy 2007 and etrailer had it. I was suspicius about it so I wrote them and got a quick and friendly answer that confirmed the fit and availability. Delivery was quick and the tracking from etrailer website was outstanding.
When I first found this product, I was excited because I was able to easily determine if it would fit my car. Then I was able to order the package that would arrive earliest based on what was written on the website.
I will say, the package arrived MUCH later than originally anticipated. I understand that times are tough with the pandemic so I was originally very understanding and patient. George reached out to me to update me on the status of my order. I began to lose patience when George began changing dates and erasing items such as “order is in stock” on a certain date in my order history. It was all very confusing and frustrating.
When I decided to finally call customer service, instead of emailing, I was put on with Bailey B. and she was a life saver. She immediately offered her direct line and told me she would personally keep an eye on this order. She went above and beyond in correspondence and helped rectify the situation. Towards the end of the several weeks, I wasn’t too kind and patient like I was in the beginning, yet she stayed professional and kind! I highly recommend calling to have her help you with your order.
When the box finally arrived, it looked a bit beat up. But I will say, there was no obvious or apparent damage to the parts. So I’m thankful to finally have my order!! The roof rack seems to fit perfectly. I will take my paddle board out tomorrow :)
Pros: adjustability, price, sturdy construction, decent appearance.
Cons: square tubes = wind noise, must remove rubber ends to mount/dismount, be careful not to strip out the hex screws
Overall impression: A good, versatile occasional use rack if you don't want a clamp on.
This Inno rack is a sturdy, basic rack. What I like best about it:
- It actually mounts to the roof tracks on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee (with the INTR132 fit kit), instead of to hard points on the roof like many other racks.
- It lets me use my Thule bars and accessories because Inno and Thule bars are the same size.
- It was much less expensive than the other racks I looked at.
- It is pretty easy to put on and take off.
What I don't like as much:
- The locking covers that go over the towers are pretty flimsy, and look like they are on crooked even when installed correctly
- This rack is quite noisy on the Grand Cherokee, but I think that's just the nature of the rectangular bars. (But since it is easy to take off, I plan on only putting it on the car when needed).
Also, thanks to the folks at etrailer for helping me figure out what would work best for my needs!
Perfect fit for my Infiniti G37x. Installation was easy and the custom foot pads aligned perfectly with the roof contours of the Infiniti. Installed two bike racks for hauling my bikes to race events and trailheads and I have 100% confidence in the stability of the base rack. There is some wind noise above 40 mph, but that is to be expected and is certainly not excessive. For the price, this an excellent purchase.
Had used Thule bars for years on multiple cars. Sadly found out Thule didn’t make a mount for my new Lexus GX. And I was about to throw in the towel, but found that the ”Inno” footing would work with my car and with my old Thule bars! They work great on my new car. Thank you etrailer for having the only website search engine that could recommend the parts I needed.
Cheers!
I had to wait for over a month after I ordered my roof rack because it was out of stock. However, once they had my item in stock, it took only a couple of days to be delivered. I’ve wanted a roof rack and kayak hookup for years, but I’ve been turned away because of the ridiculous prices of Yakima and Thule. But I am thankful that I found this website and how there is an affordable alternative when it comes to purchasing roof racks.
So far so good! Was fairly easy to install. I will say the straps that came with it are not quite long enough for my kayak’s. Not an issue for me though. Overall I am definitely satisfied and would recommend for anyone that needs a rack for kayaks.
I'm very happy with the purchase. I wasn't sure about spending this much money on something that might not work well. After using it, I'd gladly purchase again for a different car.
Fit well on my car, was very solid and secure. Did not do any damage to the paint on my roof.
Installation is pretty easy - be sure to watch the video and follow the instructions for measurements to set bases to. I could see it being a nightmare to install without those measurements.
The kit also comes with a tightening handle that has a built in torque setting. It's not shown in the video, but a good idea to use so you're sure everything is tightened properly.
Fuel economy suffers about 10-15% with the racks on - even empty. I take them off when I don't need them. I marked the bottom surface of the bars with a paint marker so I know where to put the bases when I put them back on. I also painted on the measurements from the door post so it's easier to reinstall.
Also, an item was missing from the box. etrailer customer service was fantastic about getting me a replacement part.
I'm loving the roof rack , and Ashley from customer service was really helpful. Thanks e trailer. The reviews didn't lie.
Got it for a 2006 Toyota Prius. Overall a great purchase. It was sturdy and never had any major issues. I would 100% recommend getting the locks.
I almost gave it 4 stars for one reason. If you put it on as the instructions tell you to, it whistles really loud. It just takes a bunch of small iterations and quick drives down the street to find out if it stopped making noise. Other than that, great purchase.
Great product. Easy to install. This is one of three parts needed for a complete roof rack installation. Here is a photo of the finished installation on my 2015 Acura TLX sedan.
We needed a set of crossbars for our vehicle and read many reviews of other brands before finding this product. We like the bars and the installation of them. We needed something trustworthy to accomodate our rooftop tent and this fit our needs. We experienced excellent customer service!
Great cross bars to replace the rusty original cross bars this vintage Thule rack. Classic cars require these old style racks and many are 30+ years old and great to be able to give new life to an old rack system.
Really solid bars and end caps, not much more to say!
I followed directions and the rack went on without a hitch. The measuring tape provided was a bit confusing but my tape measure did just fine. It pays to watch for any movement of the stays as you tighten them. It fit perfectly. I was impressed with the quality of the unit. The torque wrench provided was a nice bonus. I attached a boat rack for my rowing shell and I’m confident it will be safe all the way to the water.
We bought this along with the INTR102 Custom Fit Kit. We used this to mount Thule crossbars and a Thule Adventurer cargo box on a 2001 Subaru Forester. Everything fit perfectly. The Inno mounts were completely compatible with the Thule crossbars. The fast and accurate shipping helped avert a crisis before a cross country trip.
Fit perfectly on our 2007 Subaru Legacy Wagon w/flush mount rails. We had our doubts but put our faith in C.S. Rep. He was right (of course)!! The fit on the stock rails perfectly. My husband didn't really have trouble installing them at all. We also got the Inno Fit Kit Hooks and the Inno Square Crossbars. Just came back from vacation. They were perfect for my husband's bike. (We did have Thule rails from an earlier bike rack. They fit into the Inno system w/o a problem. Thank You ETrailer for ALL your help. We couldn't have put it all together without you knowledge. Perfect!
Just installed the etrailer inno square load bars on my 4Runner. I also purchased the Round/square Crossbar Fit Kit .
Looks great and mounted easily to my Prinsu Rack.
Installation is easy. Just follow directions. Front bar parts are different than rear bar parts so you need to look at part numbers and use in correct location. Rack is only rated for 100 pounds but looks and feels much stronger than rating. As noted square bars do create lot of wind noise when driving. Purchase this product to carry my Canoe and it does that at almost $200 less than other rack systems on market. For me the square bars are better fit with ratchet straps to hold Canoe down. Hard to find ratchet strap with hook to fit areo bars.
Dislike. No way to level square bars. With car on level ground high point to high point on bars is level. But each bar is off by 1/8" front to back. Wish they were round bars.
The roof racks have been great. I've used them with j-hooks and rear loading slider type pads. They are easy to install/remove. In the picture is my 17ft long sea kayak that stayed secure and safe on a 6 hour journey in high winds using the racks.
Ordered a full (naked) roof rack package with snowboard/ski attachment. Items arrived as described. Set-up was simple and flawless. Instructions are fairly clear & simple. A paper tape measure is included. No issues with fitment.Purchased the fairing to reduce wind noise and it works perfect! No excessive wind noise whatsoever -- can open sunroof comfortably if I wanted to. Have not yet put my snowboards inthe attachment yet, but do not foresee any issues. Roof rack is on a 2015 Infiniti Q40 (G37 sedan 2009-2015).
For a roof with no mounts, this is a perfect choice!
The fitment selected for me by etrailer.com for my 2012 Ford Escape was perfect. The Inno Rack System is easy to install (made easier by the use of etrailer.com's instruction video links).
I chose the square bar fitment because I prefer the look over the various "aerodynamic designs", while I prefer the look over others, a wind fairing will prove to eliminate the very hint of sound that does emanate into the cabin.
If you are looking for a Clamp mounted system that requires zero modification/easily removabl this is the system for you.
Amazing rack. Fits right on my 2015 Camry perfectly. Highly reccomend
