Features to know about

Carry Heavy Loads with Confidence: Aluminum Vortex Crossbars

The full-length aluminum crossbars give you strength you can count on for hauling gear. With a 165-lb weight capacity and a tough, corrosion-resistant build, they hold up through long road trips, camping hauls, and paddling adventures. Each bar measures 49" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall, giving plenty of room to spread out your setup and mount what you need securely.

Cut Back on Noise and Drag: Aerodynamic Bars with Rubberized Strips

Every drive feels smoother thanks to the aero-style bar profile and built-in Vortex rubber strips. The strips fill the top channels to help reduce drag and wind noise, so you don’t get that constant whistling when you’re on the highway. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference when you’re putting in long miles.

Bring All Your Gear: Works with Channel-Mount and Clamp-On Accessories

From kayaks and bikes to cargo boxes and skis, these crossbars are ready for whatever adventure comes next. The top channels accept channel-mount gear, while the bar shape also works with clamp-on carriers. That flexibility means you can use most bike, watersport, snow, and cargo attachments without needing to change racks between seasons or trips.

Keep Your Setup Secure: Integrated Locks and Lockable Covers

Once everything is in place, the integrated plastic locks in the crossbars deter theft of your mounted accessories, while lockable cover plates on each leg help keep the rack itself secure. If you want even more protection, you can upgrade to all-metal locks (RRVA-LEC4 - sold separately) for added security on extended adventures or overnight parking.

Built for the Long Haul: Multi-Part System with Dedicated Warranties

This complete roof rack system includes two Vortex crossbars, four 2500 Series legs, and a custom fit kit designed for fixed mounting points. Each component comes with its own limited warranty—crossbars for a limited lifetime, legs for 5 years, and fit kit for a limited lifetime—so you can keep focusing on the journey ahead instead of worrying about your setup.

etrailer.com's videos and additional customer support made the purchase of a Rhino Rack system from them for our 2010 Malibu a no brainer. The rack fit the car perfectly, and with the videos and clear instructions that came with the kit, I got it installed on the car with only one misstep. The instructions came the the measurements in centimeters and inches. I didn't have a metric tape measure, and ended up messing up converting fractions to decimal.
My Daughter is going to college 500 miles away and is moving into an unfurnished apartment and needed to pick up some small furniture that wouldn't fit in her Malibu. She purchased several items from Facebook Marketplace and was able to transport a twin bed and mattress, a medium sized desk and some dining room chairs (in several trips) with no problems.
The only thing I can think of to improve the installation would be to have the Inches measurements in decimal or to include an inexpensive metric tape.

Still rock solid after a year. Very happy with the Rack. My daughter has used it from time to time over the past year when something wont fit in her car, and shes had no problems with it at all.

Great sturdy rack. I put it together myself and have already started using it. I was concerned that it would cause leaks in the door the way it has to mount..but its Florida and its rainfall in the past few days and no leak! The weak link would be the end caps..two do not lock on and im concerned the will fly off at some point.

Still happy. Theres a whistle, but you can fix it with a bit of foam insulation in the bottom of the rail.

by:
You have to order the cross bars and connector hardware separately. I also ordered the end cap locks.

I consider myself a pretty good DYI person and it took longer than I expected according to other reviews on here to get everything installed and overlapping the same on both sides.

Once installed the crossbars are very solid. I do get noticeable wind noise at say 70+MPH.

I installed these on a 2020 Jeep GC Overland and they look and function great! Was a bit concerned about the sun roof retraction with the bars, but there is plenty of clearance. No issue.

I for sure recommend the Rhino Rail crossbars. Etrailer is a great site to get the bars. Given the COVID issues and supply chain breakdowns retailers are facing, they still had everything I ordered to me in a very reasonable time frame.

Got this for a 2015 Prius. High quality works great. Use their measurements included as a guide and measure everything out yourself before cutting the spacers and when installing. I had to make minor adjustments to make it perfect.

These crossbars were easy to install, are sturdy when installed and look great on my factory side rails when installed with the SX Series legs. The standard end caps are an all-plastic affair and use a little key to engage a cam lock. That plus the distance from the end of the crossbar to the nut that tightens the foot onto the rail keeps things relatively secure. Most people probably want to opt for proper locking end caps, though.

The rubber vortex strips look nice and give items something grippy to rest on. I haven't tried a load test yet but did drive around in moderate wind on the highway in multiple directions. Other than a slight whistle at 70 mph, you'd never know they were there. Overall, real happy with the product and looking forward to hauling some stuff around with them.

I bought this rack for my son who is a rower so he could take his single shell and oars to regattas using his new Chevy Cruz. First trip from Wyandotte, Michigan to Boston, Massachusetts and back was great. A learning curve to get in the right spot on roof but very sturdy & strong. He is looking forward to many regattas with this car and roof rack. Very Satisfied with etrailer and the rack itself and thank you for the quick shipping.
by:
Easy to install. The pins on the legs clamp perfectly into the fixed points on the car's flush rails. This is a nice low profile set up. The top of the crossbar is about 4" above the roof glass and does not interfere with opening the sunroof. This is a very sturdy setup for our Thule Motion XT XL. etrailer shipped extremely fast. Very pleased with my purchase.

i George from etrailer,
The rack is awesome! Strong, firm hold and nice looking. When doing surveys, I put my ladders on the rack.
I highly recommend this etrailer.
by:
My inital thought of these crossbars were that they were going to be too small. Two of the other big makers call for 53" min and 60" recommended. However after installing, 49" is a perfect fit for the Cayenne I feel. The rack is extremely quiet (make sure you use the channel rubber on top and bottom) The Cayenne is fairly quiet car inside and it was one of my big concerns but I only hear what sounds like a slight rush of air, no buzzing or whistling at all.

The downside to this rack is I think the black paint is too thin. Just laying it on the pavement while setting up caused scratches to appear. Silver would be the way to go if your getting these, or spray them plastic.

I ordered the complete Rhino-Rack with legs for my 2009 Subaru Forester. I watch a couple of videos prior to installation. Followed instructions and installation was completed without any issues. Product was delivered promptly and Natalie helped me with my order and she followed up to inform me of the status of my order. Thanks for the help and thanks for a product.
by:
Rhino-Rack installed on my 2022 Jeep Cherokee. There was wind noise (whistling) when all the rubber spacers were not installed, now it’s very quiet. I also installed the Yakima fishing rod//Ski holder. I wound up deviating from the directions and using the third lot, so the clamps would close on the bar. So far so good, without the fishing rod holder it’s low profile enough to get into garages, etc. Fast delivery on the products.
by:
Love these aero bars. Perfect for on my 2018 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk. Run fairly quiet and perform as expected. As always the customer service from etrailer was top notch.
by:
The instructions were clear and the rack installed perfectly. I am impressed with the custom foot mouldings that match my car's contours exactly, and the rack is still as tight as when I installed it 4 weeks ago. I have been using it frequently to pick up 8' lumber for a large shelving project I have underway, and I hope to soon use it to carry my kayaks. The rubber strips on the top hold the lumber so securely I have no worry of having the load slip off the car. The two negatives I have are: (1) the crossbar end-caps consist of 2 locking and 2 slip-ons. I have come out to my car to see 1 of the slip-ons half slipped-off and I expect I will lose one or both of them in short order; and (2) the instructions should put the forward bar at least 1 inch further forward. As you will see in the photo, Rhino's guidelines result in the front bar being higher than the back bar, which results in additional wind pressure on the goods being carried. Finally, I would like to thank etrailer for shipping the product exactly as promised and also for packaging the entire order in an additional box as I requested. I found your service to be outstanding! You are welcome to post my comments and or photo if you should wish to.

2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Easy to read instructions, easy to install. Watched the install video a few times just to be sure! They do whistle a bit at highway speeds, but certainly not unbearable. In fact, I was surprised as to how quiet they are. It's to be expected, especially when paired with kayak j-racks. So happy with this purchase and I would definitely recommend them!

2019 Jeep Cherokee
I spent a week reading reviews and forums to find the right one for my 2019 Jeep Cherokee that I just bought a few weeks ago. I just have to overthink everything but it paid off. I just received them this morning and installed them myself! First time for everything! It was really easy. The only part that was frustrating was the very first part... sliding the rubber pieces into the crossbars. They would not slide very well so I ended up using a bit of oil to make them slide better. Other than that, installation was easy and quick. I LOVE the looks of them. Very gorgeous!!! Thank you so much!! Very happy with the end result!!
by:
The bars look and feel great. They have such a tough presence while still being aerodynamic. I love the look of the rubber grip strip on top and I like how the rubber strip on the bottom ends have graduations so you can easily match the overhang with the other side. They feel incredible strong, no bend in the them at all. If the platforms were a bit more robust this thing would outshine all the competition. However, it competes with every other system at a much lower price point so that gets 5 stars in my book.
by:
Delivery was a little slower then I would have liked, but otherwise it was perfect. Great customer service when I called to ask about them. Make sure you read the instructions when you install (I didn't and wasted an hour fooling around with the wrong parts) other then that, the install was smooth as silk.
by:
The quality is very good. Ordering was easy and installation using the video made the process so simple. Glad I order them from here instead of somewhere else.

Toyota Camry
I bought this last yr to haul my kayaks on my Toyota camry. Being 5'2", getting them on top of my SUV was next to impossible for me and my daughters. Since then, I have traveled from Michigan, all the way to the west coast with two 13' ft kayaks. These racks have been absolutely perfect in every aspect. I mounted them myself, and checked them regularly to see if they needed adjusted. Not once did they loosen or move. They with stood Traveling with speed limits reaching 80 mph on I84, along with the windy weather on our cross-country trip. My car moved around from the high winds, and the racks stayed put. These racks have by far reached and surpassed every expectation I had when purchasing them. I would not recommend another. Only thing I would recommend is showing installation for both front and back bars, since the measurements are slightly different for both. As I had to figure this out my self, after watching the installation video. Thank you Rhino for providing such a high quality product.

Lexus IS 250
This roof rack works great! At first I was skeptical about putting a rack on my IS250, but it couldn't have turned out better. Paired with the Yakima Highroad, I can easily transport my bikes around without worrying about anything coming loose while driving. The installation instructions for the legs and bars are pretty straightforward. Takes about 30-45 minutes total to install.
by:
I purchased the Rhino Rack roof rack as an alternative to the factory installed products and the more popular Thule and Yakima brands. The Rhino Rack is solid and sleek and is largely silent while driving (if I have the roof open you can hear a soft whistle). Not only does the rack look fantastic, but the non-slip top and the strong bars make carrying things on top a real pleasure.

2016 Ford Escape
The Rhino Rack is very well made. I installed it my self on our 2016 Ford Escape, but had an assist from my wife to fine tune it at the end. There was no whistling or any other distracting wind noise on our 3,500 mile drive to visit family out West. A Sear's Cargo Box was easily mounted to the Rhino Rack and it remained centered and secured at western highway speed limits plus. The included locks on the roof mounts were the selling point for me. The Rhino Rack remained securely mounted to the roof with no additional adjustments or tightening being needed. Great Product. Donna P. @ etrailer was super with the order.
by:
These are certainly stronger than the previous set I had purchased elsewhere, easy to install, came with easy to use directions and went on quickly.
Highly recommend these for hauling kayaks or whatever u need to put on your roof.

    There is a solution for you, but the issue with the BoatLoader EVO the crossbar spread as well as its 80 lb weight capacity, which is less than your 87 lb fishing kayak.

    For the 2020 Ford Edge With Glass Vista Roof and Flush Mount Rails I recommend the Rhino Rack roof rack part # RRVA126B-2, and # RRSX024. The aerodynamic shape of the crossbars along with the Vortex strips in the C-channels significantly cut down on wind noise. The roof rack is compatible with the glass vista roof on the Edge but I do not recommend opening the sunroof while carrying cargo on the roof rack to avoid damage.

    Apart from how the rooftop bags mount there is little difference between the cargo bags that go on the naked roof of your 2013 Kia Soul or one that attaches to a roof rack.

  • Cost Effective Roof Rack Recommendation for 2011 Honda Accord
    What we've found with the Sportrack Semi-Custom roof racks like the part # SR1002 is that they don't always fit the best. Reason being they are designed to fit as many vehicles as possible which means they don't fit everything perfectly. The price makes these hard to not be tempted by, but your best option is a fully custom fit roof rack like the Inno part # INB127, # INSUT, and # INK745 otherwise you'll have to get somewhat creative to get the Sportrack to fit right.

  • Which Roof Basket Will Fit Onto The Flush Rails On My 2015 Buick Encore?
    I am not sure which aftermarket rails you might be referring to. If you have flush rails running front to back and no crossbars then you will first need to install crossbars such as Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 along with Legs # RRSX040. Then you can add a roof basket like Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs # TH859XT. The Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket - 41-1/2" Long x 37" Wide x 4" Deep # C18115 you were looking at is not able to fit...

    Hey Bob, Roof rack systems are typically only rated up to 165lbs because that's typically above the capacity of the vehicle's roof. More recently all manufacturers are switching to removing the capacity from the listing and telling consumers to check the weight capacity of the roof because people have been overloading their roofs and causing damage. The # RR38ZE is missing a crossbar but includes the correct amount of feet and and fit kit components so you'll need to order the following...
