When you're loading up kayaks, ladders, or camping gear, you want bars that won’t flex or bow. These heavy-duty aluminum crossbars handle up to 220 lbs while keeping their shape mile after mile. The sturdy construction gives you peace of mind when you’re carrying bulky or contractor-grade loads.
These square bars aren’t just about strength—they make mounting gear simple. The top channels accept Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty accessories like ladder rollers, load stops, and eyebolts. Rubber strips inside the channels add grip and cushion your load so things stay put even on rough roads.
Every trip starts with a solid connection to your roof. The included (4) 2500 Series legs use lockable cover plates to secure the rack in place. Once installed, it’s a firm, custom fit that won’t shift or slide when you hit highway speeds or head down a gravel track.
The black aluminum construction stands up to weather and repeated use without rusting or fading. Rhino-Rack backs it with a limited lifetime warranty on the crossbars and a 5-year limited warranty on the legs and fit kit, so you can rely on it season after season.

Two items I received surprised me when I unpacked the box were the rails because they were not black like I saw in the picture, and the rubber insert that I am having a hard time sliding in the rail. Should this rubber insert have come already installed in the rail or is there a top on how to put in with ease?
excellent product! added lots of storage capacity to my Corolla!
superb customer service and I would highly recommend etrailer.
Well engineered rack that fits my Ram 2500 crew cab well. A bit of wind noise at highway speeds. I have the heavy duty cross pieces with a square cross section.
This is my second Rhino-Rack. They go on very easily and hold the bikes/kayaks and even an extension ladder very well....thanks for a great product
Your site is well structured and I appreciate all the different photos and videos available to see how the roof rack would look on my exact car. Ordering was a snap and it was very helpful to have all the parts required compiled in one package. The delivery was super fast within 3 bus days! Installation went smooth.
Instructions should be in inches not metric. My only b*tch so far.
This rack worked out great... I installed in on a 2017 Ford F-150. We drove 6 hrs through wind and rain with a SUP and Tandem Kayak on top. It really took a beating in a storm the whole way. One bracket was a little loose and shifted because of the wind on the Kayak, but it held together. Super happy with Rhino rack!
This kit is easy to slap on and sturdy enough to balance my skis and snowboards. I recently used the Rhino Rack on a three hour drive to a ski resort and had no issues.
I purchased my Rhino Rack from etrailer about a year ago and cannot be more pleased with the quality of the product or the level of customer service received from etrailer. Both brands have exceeded expectations!
I was in a roof rack jam. There was a national shortage of the rack I needed for my car and our summer vacation was a week away. I went to etrailer.com when I couldnt find the roof rack anywhere else on the web. Another website actually suggested that they might have what I needed.
I spoke to Ashley E on the phone to make sure that I was picking the right parts. Ashley was very helpful and knowledgable. She helped me find the right roof rack and made sure that I received it in record time. I am a customer for life!!!
It didn't fit properly.
It says it's a custom fit for my car. I spent hours putting it on. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong looked at directions and watched videos on YouTube. Can't get it to line up properly, very frustrating.
I got the roof rack mounted anyways. Better pics to come when it's all finished!
This rack was easy to assemble and install. I love that it has locks to help prevent theft and tampering. I have a Corolla, so the rack gives me extra storage/transport space, especially for larger items like Christmas trees. It's sturdy but easy to remove if needed. There is a little extra wind noise with it installed, but I assume that's standard for roof racks. It also looks great on my car! Highly recommend this Rhino roof rack!
Ordered a Rhino Rack for my 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali. Rack arrived in very good shape and all items were there. Installing at this time and see no problems ahead.
Great product everything fit perfectly. With the heavy duty bars almost all the hardware for anything you put on the rack is too short
Order was fast, installation was a breeze with the video, and customer service was fantastic!! Will definitely be ordering more items from here
love it, no problem and easy to install and take on and off, 47,000 miles on the highway and not a single issue. I even like the song the ladder hums to me driving down the interstate. This is my second Rhino and both have preformed to a high standard.
From the minute Erica, from etrailer answered the phone and took my order, the process of getting my new Rhino-Rack 2500 was easy. Once my auto body shop installed the rack, I saw what a quality product the Rhino-Rack 2500 is. It fits my 2017 Toyota Corolla like it was from the factory. It looks great on the car and the functionality is excellent. I love it and highly recommend etrailer and Rhino-Rack products
Thanks to Etrailer, I am ready to do some serious summer exploring with my 2013 Mazda 3! Rhino Racks, Malone top box, and Kuat bike rack!
Very happy with etrailer.com and the amount of information I found before I made my selection. I went with the Rhino Rack for my 2016 Corolla. I watched the videos, read the instructions and within just a couple hours, my rack was attached, my canoe was loaded and I was out taking a test drive. 2 issues with the instructions. I didn't realize that there were two different size hooks...I did not see it mentioned in either the video or the written instructions. I got it right, but it was purely by chance. The other issue was the rubber pads which were, again, not mentioned. I installed them wrong the first time, but it didn't take me long to see my mistake. Happy with the stability and looks of the rack, and the help I received from Robert during the ordering process.
This rack works perfectly on my Nissan Versa for carrying my two Perception Sound 9'6" kayaks. The Rhino-Racks look good to me. The kayaks can rest directly on the rubber pads on the rails, unlike the Yakama racks I had in the past that had bare pipe rails. Also, I expect I can buy parts to adapt this product to a different car without having to buy new towers. I am sorry there are not hooks or loops to attach bungees when carrying lumber. They are noisy in the wind, but less so when carrying the kayaks.
I got the roof rack mounted anyways. Better pics to come when it's all finished!

It's not you - Rhino Rack isn't know for their outstanding instructions, to be honest. But if you can email me some pictures of the issues you're running into, I can certainly try and help figure out where things are going sideways!
