When wind hits the front of your roof rack, it can create noise and drag that wear on long drives. The Inno Aero Roof Rack uses aerodynamic crossbars designed to keep the airflow smooth. The top channels have push-down rubber strips that fill the gaps around your mounted gear to reduce vibration and whistling. The result is a quieter ride that feels more natural on the highway.
Whether you’re hauling kayaks, cargo boxes, or bikes, these crossbars are ready for it. The top channels accept channel-mount hardware, and the bar shape fits clamp-on attachments too. That flexibility means your existing carriers and future gear can all work off the same setup—no need for special adapters.
This rack comes as a complete system with 2 aero crossbars, 4 through feet, and a custom fit kit for your vehicle’s naked roof. The design gives you a secure hold without needing factory rails or drilling into the roof. Once installed, you have a sturdy foundation for cargo boxes, watercraft, or camping gear.
Each bar is made from aluminum for strength without extra weight and finished in black for a clean look. Lockable leg covers deter theft when parked at campgrounds or trailheads. With a 165-lb weight capacity—and always observing your vehicle’s maximum roof load—you can trust this setup to handle heavy loads trip after trip.
The 51" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall crossbars give you space to mount multiple accessories side by side. The top channel dimensions—13/16" wide x 1/4" tall with a 3/8" opening—make it easy to slide in mounting hardware without cutting or trimming the rubber strips. It’s a simple, practical approach that keeps setup smooth and secure every time.

Has worked great for transporting my fishing Kayak as well as small loads of lumber. It has worked fine for about a dozen and a half boards at a time or a couple of sheets of plywood. Just make sure that you have a good way to strap them down as well as maybe a rubber mat to help hold everything in place. The noise from it on the high way can be a lot but certainly not as bad as some that I have heard. I figure that anything on the outside of a vehicle like that will produce some noise.
These feet are easy to use and go well wit the Inno system. I was worried since my car did not come with any roof racks, but this is the solution to haul things on my roof. They work well and are very secure.
I plan to use the roof rack for a fishing kayak I just bought. I received the roof rack today. All parts and instructions were present. They appear well made. There was even an metric tape measure to insure accurate installation. Following the instructions and assembly was straight forward. I encountered no problems whatever.
I have had countless bike racks over the years and this is by far the best system I have ever had. Fits like a glove on my F150. Easy to install, looks great and the bikes do not move when on the roof.
Great Fit for my 2017 Jeep Patriot. Easy install and looks great!
Started assembly last summer and finally completed installation this spring. Directions took a lot of attention to detail but were adequate. Rack went on car securely and looks great. Have attached kayak rack and a roof pod and both worked flawlessly. Would definitely recommend.
These are made perfectly for your vehicle. They are very secure when combined with the other Inno products. No worries of the rack system coming off. Using them to transport kayaks using kayak holders.
I just received and instilled my rack system. Time will tell, but my initial reaction is that of disappointment with the quality of the system, considering what I spent. The cross bars seem to be plastic, and the end caps on the cross bars seem to be plastic and covered with a faux metal chrome. I am curious to see how well this system holds up to the hot Florida sun. The positive is that I like the general shape of the aero crossbars, and they are relatively quiet when I am driving.
Ellen was very knowledgable about the product and helpful in getting the exchange processed. And while the product itself seems to be of excellent quality, I did have to trim the crossbars a bit in order for them to fit precisely enough that the plastic pieces that cover the metal hardware could actually fit properly and be locked on, as they are supposed to be. There is no leeway for a non-perfect fit. It would be easy for me to mount a new set if I had to, but doing it for the first time was very time-consuming. The mechanism is somewhat complicated, and the directions were OK but could have been a little clearer on a couple of the procedures. Try it some time and you'll see what I mean.
These fit the car along with the other Inno items perfectly. They are very secure when combined with the other Inno products. No worries of the rack system coming off. Using them to transport kayaks using kayak holders.
Purchased with the, "Inno Through Feet for Aero Crossbars," for our 2017 Sienna. Pretty simple to install, maybe 20minutes after reading instructions. Seems solid.
Tule and Yakima did not have a rack for my Nissan murano. So it was a blessing to find the immo rack. It seems like it can fit any car model. It's strong and secure. I feel my equipment will be safe with this rack.
etrailer was the only vendor who had the custom fit roof rack feet I needed for my vehicle. I was trying to put a roof rack onto a Dodge Durango SRT...not a typical vehicle for this accessory! I looked everywhere for a suitable roof rack and thought I was settling by ordering the Inno kit from etrailer. I could not have been more wrong! I am so happy with the purchase!
Waste of money. Most annoying couple hours spent in a long time. Extremely disappointed. Does not fit well. Not exactly a cheap option, but a cheap option in terms of fit and engineering. The instructions online and in the kits do not agree. But there is no helping the design. Plus there are no universal set of instructions--they are all individual items for the fit kit, the bars, etc. But a reasonably inclined person can figure it out so no big deal, but the engineering design is garbage--requires precise measurement yet the design is such that exact measurement is impossible due to the design.
Additionally, the parts are low quality Either low density plastic or easily stripped bolts. Even when as precise as possible, I wouldn't trust it with my kayak. What a mistake. Do yourself a favor and get a Yakima trailer or similar. It isn't that much more money in the scheme of things and then it isn't tied to your car. Can add a hitch to most vehicles anyway.
I upgraded to these Aero Crossbars hoping it would mean a quieter drive with less wind noise. I am so glad I did. There is not noise at all with these bars. I use them with my roof cargo carrier and I don't even notice it is there. These bars are even strong enough to haul my canoe. I am very pleased with them.
I've bought Yakima, Thule, Xport and Inno rack systems before - and they honestly all work the same. I prefer the Yakima and Thule kayak attachments (and blend the two brands to my taste), but for the basic rack system; why pay top dollar? I bought an Inno rack system for my last car and never installed it in the 4 years that I owned it. So when I bought my CR-V, I had a brand new rack that doesn't fit my car. Thanks to etrailer for carrying the fit kit for the CR-V at the lowest price I could find on the internet (not that low, but lower). Free shipping would have been nice - as most retailers offer it over $50... especially for something this small, but overall, they had something I needed, and I'm not disappointed in the speed of shipping, customer service, or the product. Thanks
Installation went pretty smoothly. The trick is to fully understand each step before moving to the next. There are a lot of small parts which at first was a little intimidating, but soon I was able to "get with it". I love the finished product and think you helped me get a good deal. Thank you for that
Installation was a little tricky but once the "feet" were attached to the roof and the bars properly spaced, everything wrapped up very well.
There is no noticeable wind noise with these installed.
I bought these as part of a kit with 60" Aero bars and the appropriate kit for my 14 Flex. I spent probably an hour and a half double checking my measurements and getting them torqued down properly. I spaced the bars on top of the car just a little wider than proscribed because I was planning on carrying 4x8 plywood, and it looked better to my eye. One thing to watch for: The instructions for the car-specific kit (in my case INK263) show the foot spacing measurements for a square bar, and the measuring point for these feet and Aero bars is different. That measurement point is indicated in the instructions for the feet, not the kit. Same numbers, just different reference point. Otherwise, they look good and are rock solid.
We recently purchased 2 kayaks & Thule roof racks from our local outdoor store.
After waiting 2 weeks for our roof racks and J bars to come in we found that the Thule racks did not fit our 2017 Lincoln MKX and they didn't make any racks that would. The vehicle does not have roof racks and has a moon roof.
After a couple of days searching the internet we discovered etrailer.com. We found the Inno roof racks, but still was not sure they would work. We spoke to a repesenative and he assured us that the racks we chose would fit and the Thule J bars we did return would also work. As you can see by the photos 2 days later we were happy Kayakers.
The Inno roof rack fit my 2014 Honda CRV very well. I used it immediately on a 500 mile trip and the rack is fantastic. I connected an XL Thule car box and 11'-6" paddle board to the rack and everything fit fine. The aero design is great and we did not hear any noise during the trip.
The Inno roof rack is an excellent product and etrailer.com provides exceptional service with videos, email, chat and phone. I bought this roof rack for my 2008 Ford Edge because because there is enough clearance for the moon roof. I use it to mount a 600W solar system for rustic camping instead of a noisy generator. I wish I'd taken a photo... I won't be mounting it again until mid-August 2024.
Very nice quality, made in Japan. Easy to install using the Inno XS150 base stays. The 51" was a nice size for my 2015 Touareg. Many of the manufacturers recomment wider (53-54"), but I like the narrower profile. Unfortunately, the Aero design still creates a slight bit of wind noise at highway speeds, and it gets worse if the sunroof is raised (vent). I like the soft rubber T-channel material which allows the accessories to mount without cutting the material. I also like the slightly arched shape.
Worked like a charm. My daughter and I completed a 10K mile, 35 day camping trip around the USA.
