Specs:
The Malone AirFlow2 roof rack lets you carry gear and accessories on the roof of your vehicle with raised, factory side rails. This complete roof rack system includes 2 aluminum, aerodynamic crossbars and 4 towers. Rubber strips in the top channels push down for easy loading of T-slot accessories and carriers. The full-length crossbars extend past the towers to give you more mounting space for carriers, and the towers have built-in locks to protect the rack from theft. The rack clamps onto your raised side rails and tightens down with the included tool, so it's easy to remove and install.
Aerodynamic Shape
The AirFlow2's Aerodynamic shape helps control air flow over and under the bar to significantly decrease wind noise and vibration even at highway speeds. This decreases the need to add a fairing to your roof rack. The aero-style bar also reduces drag and helps maintain fuel efficiency.
Lightweight, Aluminum Crossbars
The silver crossbars are made of aluminum, which makes them strong, lightweight, and resistant to corrosion. The bars also have plastic endcaps to protect the interiors from the elements and to give your roof rack a finished look.
Durable Towers with Built-In Security
The towers are made of molded nylon that won't fade or wear down when exposed to the elements. Each tower includes a nylon cover with a built-in lock to deter would-be thieves from removing the rack from your roof. The covers also protect the towers' interior and hardware from the elements.
Easy Installation with Rubber-Coated Steel Clamps
The towers attach to your vehicle's raised, factory side rails with rubber-coated steel clamps. The rubber coating provides a superior grip on your side rails and protects them from damage during installation and use.
To tighten, simply turn the bolt inside the tower assembly with the included installation tool until the clamps are snug. Once assembled, the towers and crossbars stay together as one unit, which makes removing, storing, and reinstalling the system a snap. To remove, simply remove the cover and loosen the bolts inside the towers with the installation tool.
Channel and Clamp-On Accessories
These crossbars have built-in top channels with strips that allow you to carry channel-mounted accessories on your roof. You can remove, trim, and re-insert the strips around the mounting hardware of your accessories to keep the crossbar channel capped and quiet.
Maximum Cargo Carrying Capacity
The AirFlow2 includes full-length crossbars that extend past the towers. The increased length gives you more space to mount accessories and carriers to your roof rack. The bars are compatible with most universal, clamp-on accessories and carriers.

These bars are really easy to use and look nice. My only complaint is that the end caps are hard to put on. Two of them broke while I was installing it, and an email to customer service was never answered. 567274
Outstanding product! The rack, once mounted, is rock solid. The instruction were clear and the mounting process was fairly simple. My only complaint/warning would be to NOT over-tighten the Allen screw that clamps the mount to the side rail. One of the internal nuts stripped, but I was able to make it work with a lock nut of the proper size. I take the blame for that. 434772
Have Malone Airflow 2 crossbars. Fit well and hold everything in place. Can’t complain. Bought them for the price, nothing fancy. Take them off in winter. Takes forever to manually screw them on tight. Expected that. If you don’t get the rubber gasket things in place perfectly under the crossbars as instructed they whistle as you drive. Don’t lose the keys! 690759
Pretty slick looking, and fairly easy to install on a 2018 Subaru Forester. No problems inserting the rubber trim into the slot on the underside of the crossbars. I haven't yet driven it above 50 mph (just installed them this afternoon) but so far no noise issues. I also haven't mounted any kind of equipment rack to the crossbars, so I can't speak to the T-slot functionality yet. One tip - be sure the plastic end cap is pushed onto the rail far enough for the release tab to click into the square hole inside the rail end. It can feel like it's pushed on all the way, but the tab must engage or it's not secure. Give it a solid tug to test it - sure would suck for it to come flying off on the highway somewhere. 529106
Kevin T - 07/01/2019Arrived very quickly and installed today...simple install and looks good. Mentioned to a coworker I had ordered from etrailer and he said he had also ordered some racks for his truck earlier from your company and was very pleased. 435362
I am reluctant to leave a review before I actually use them, but I wanted to go ahead and leave a review on ease of setup. It took me less than 10 minutes to install the bars and they appear to be well made. We'll see once I start hauling my kayak around this spring. 493800
Thomas E - 04/07/2019Super fast shipping. Everything installed in about 20 minutes, no problems. Fits great on 2015 forester with raised roof rails. Only tool required was an Allen key that is attached to lock 'A' of the included towers. 500139
Taylor - 04/24/2019My SUV now has Utility!! Added the racks so I could transport purchases from my local home improvement stores. Not using any carriers (bike, kayak). The kit was easy to install, looks great! Is quiet (unlike comparably priced square tubbing), and includes rubber that should keep my rails from getting scratched. I prefer a straight across profile over the curved versions that cost 2-3x more. Highly recommend. . 693723
I ordered the Malone MPG215 and they arrived in a few days. I was worried that the 50" rails would be to short, the Malone fitment guide said they would be to short and I would need the 58" rails for my 2017 Jeep Cherokee. I didn't want the longer rails to overhang the doors and bang my head. I watched the etrailer install video and they had the shorter rails so I figured it was worth a chance. They arrived completely assembled except for the snap on end caps and the rubber trim for the bottom of the rails. Easy install- take out of the box, unlock the covers, take out the allen keys, loosen up the clamps, put them on the rack, measure for alignment, tighten them up, replace the covers, snap on end caps, measure and cut the rubber trim and install, DONE!!!! It took about a half hour, super easy at half the cost of more expensive rails. The silver rails go good with the factory rack. Over hang is about an inch in the front and two inches in the rear. Now I can take my gear or get some materials at the local home improvement store without fear of how I'm going to get it home. I really appreciate the install videos etrailer provides, makes everything easier. 655581
The crossbars themselves are relatively lightweight but appear to be sturdy. I used them on my 4runner to mount a rooftop tent. I traveled some rough trails and was camping for four nights without any problem. The bars have done well under some rough conditions. I do think the plastic end caps are garbage. They were a pain to install then easily come off if the rail clamp slides and hits them, also break easily. That was disappointing. etrailer service was fantastic and I recommend doing business with them 496246
Jeff A - 04/14/2019The Airflow2 are great. They fit perfectly on the stock rails on my Subaru Impreza. Quiet, secure, and good looking. When driving with my 19ft surfski or 12ft surf rescue boards I have complete confidence. 557970
Mike L - 08/25/2018 Kevin - 08/25/2019Previous owner and heavy user of roof racks including Yakima round bars on 3 vehicles, Thule aero bars (2) and factory roof racks on Toyota 4Runner and Highlander. First Malone product. Took about 45 minutes to place on a Rav4. Construction materials are solid but just a hair below Thule and Yakima. Ease of installation was as good or better than previous racks. Value was by far the greatest asset that Malone offers. Once installed, the racks feel solid, only a hint of additional road noise on the way to work this morning. Full test with two sup boards on a 200 mile round trip this weekend. 551807
1ST time user of etrailer. Extreamly happy with the product that I ordered. The reason you were chosen by me was word of mouth through my son-in-law, and then ease of use of your site. 705343
Rack working well. Only minor issue is that the small plastic covers on the ends of the racks that cover up the securing bolts tend to pop open when I pull my kayak off the rack. Would be better if those covers were hinged at the top versus the bottom and opened in the upward direction. Probably a matter of time before they get ripped off. 565877
Mark - 09/17/2019Easy to assemble and look good. Happy with the price. As other reviewers said, watch the end caps, there is extra plastic on the odd locking tab that needs to be trimmed so they will stay on. The manufacturer should look at fixing the mold for this. Etrailer experience was excellent. 553440
Al - 08/13/2019Here’s our 2017 4runner with Malone aero racks and Thule force XL Cargo box Great combination for the rig 488902
Our objective is to carry a 16' canoe. etrailer was quite helpful in advising on cross-bar options for our 2015 Toyota Sienna minivan. The Malone cross bars were a good value and fit onto our factory installed roof rails. Also, their measurement was sufficiently accurate that the minivan is able to clear entry into our garage. We will be going back to etrailer for advice on which support system to use with the Malone cross bars. 544461
I bought the least expensive item in the category, and I must say I was happy with the results. The Aero Crossbars were pretty easy to install and work well. Very little wind noise, if any. Though with the Cargo basket attached to the rails, there is a little wind noise. The Rola Cargo Basket is very sturdy and seems to be well made and solid. Better then my expectation. The roof/rack mounting hardware works well. The only difficulty I had in assembly was with the rubber sleeves that cover the basket assembly screws to protect them from rusting. These were very challenging to install and I wish I had thought to just use some black duct tape - I suspect most people don't bother with them. That was the only negative - I do lose about 2.5 miles per gallon with the rack installed on my 2017 Subaru Forester, but that was expected. Overall very pleased with the purchase. Found the ordering and shipping went exactly as expected. 407848

i enjoy buying from e trailer .they are always on time they have great web site and i find i have nothing to worry about when purchasing online. 936334
Have not used the item yet, but it looks great. Delivery was fast. 935563
Very solid bars and hardware. Be careful when installing the end caps as I can see where it would be easy to mess them up. So far they've stayed in but their design could stand some improvement. There's only one point of contact that keeps them attached to the bars. The Malone bars were easy to install and sit a bit higher then the OEM aero Subaru bars that they replaced. There's no more noise from the Malone bars compared to the ones they replaced and there was no change in my MPG on the highway with no load on them. Make sure you install the rubber strip on the underside of the bars to reduce noise, it works! The Malone bars obviously offer a completely different carrying platform then the OEM aero bars did! I look forward to many years of use from them. Thanks etrailer! 935220
Great roof rack at a good price. Don’t pay $100’s more, this works great. Used on a 2018 VW Tiguan. Minimal noise, and looks great on the car too. Used with a large Yakima box on top without any problems. 934199
