Howzit etrailer.com & staff. the rack itself is sturdy and more aero than comparable units. For my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek (OEM) Aero Bars, it was necessary to shim the (rear) lower/leading edge clamp assembly with two 1/8” x 1.5” x 1.5” (EPDM) rubber pads. The bars are shaped like a wing – and these shims helped to level the rear rack with the one in front. Overall - it looks very clean and functional. I might screw on some rubber ends over the ends of the mounting bolt to complete the project. Time to make some turns. Thank you!!

The Rhino Rack was easy to put up on a 2018 Subaru Outback. Took me about 10 minutes. The only issue is that the rack bottom bracket piece is is convex with an acute angle which makes it not fit perfectly on the Subaru crossbar that has a flat bottom. Loaded 2 pairs of skis and poles and the rack kept them securely fastened during transport on the highway. There was some noise from the rack during highway driving but it was minimal.

So easy to install onto Thule AeroBlade. Quality materials and convenient design. No significant noise noticeable from wind resistance when driving. etrailer provided great shipment/notification support and was great resource for how-to videos, commentary.

Better than I expected. Only comes with four core locks so be aware of that if you want six like I did. Bought two more locks from Thule with the same key #. Mounted this carrier on my Rhino Rack. Perfect fit and looks great. Would highly recommend.

Love it!!!!!! Great ski rack replacement for older rack. The extended slide is incredible. The eTrailer support helped me pick the model that worked for my car and crossbars. Another wonderful purchase from my go to source for bike/ski or other related products!

Used this last season for the first time. Found it lightweight and very easy to install; the main difficulty was getting front and back carriers aligned on the center of the vehicle as the clasps are offset. It was used to hold 4 sets of skis and did this quite easily. I think 5 sets would be no problem, but six sets might be pushing it especially if you are using wider skis. It is very much worth the extra money to get the extender/slide out option if you stand under 6' tall and have an SUV.

I think these racks will be excellent during ski outings for many years. I attached them directly to the C-grooves on my Aero bars rather than using the provided clamps. The C-groove attachment is stronger and slightly lower profile. I love the large release buttons!.

I can't ski, I fly fish. However my oldest decided to try downhill skiing after being gifted a pair of skis. I am budget minded should the skiing not work out and after breaking many rod tips decided this might solve 2 problem. I am very pleased w/this equipment holder. It has transported skis & ski poles too and from and no longer does my oldest have to dodge skies coming over the back seat. So far it has taken abuse from the rain (& freezing rain), snow, ice, rapid warming, road salt, and upwards of 70mph and there has been no shifting, loosening, breaking of plastic or any other noticeable problems. I am excited for spring to see how it transports my fly rods.

This rack easily fits 5 sets of skis for my family. It is FAIRLY easy to take on and off (could be faster if we didn't have to turn turn turn the dials). My biggest complaint is that as soon as my skis are out of it, I HAVE to remove it from my car (SUV). The noise of it empty on my roof is so loud when I am on the highway it is AWFUL! It's like it vibrates my whole car and is super loud. It only does it when there are no skis in it. It is frustrating since it would be way easier just to leave it on all winter taking my skis on and off when we need to, not the entire rack.

Audi A4 Ski And Snowboard Racks Questions
- We do have aero-style roof racks to fit your 2017 Audi A4 Sedan from makers like Thule, Yakima and Inno. All of them appear on the linked page.
If it were my car and my money I would select the Inno Flush rack made of parts # INXB100-108, # INXS200 and # INK481. This rack system is shown in the linked installation video. On your car the bars will have a spread of 26-inches, wide enough for excellent stability for whatever items you load on them, and a weight capacity of 120-lbs...
view full answer... - Yes, the Thule Circuit TH526XT, will work with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRVA126B-2, # RRSX100, for use on you 2014 Audi A4.
view full answer... - Yes, the Rhino-Rack RS 2500 Roof Rack part # RRRS389B is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Audi A4 Quattro. I checked with Rhino-Rack for you as well. The Lockrack Stand-Up Paddle Board Carrier part # 339LR50SASET that you referenced will work with this rack as well as your SUP. When removing the Rhino-Rack RS 2500 Roof Rack and the Lockrack Stand-Up Paddle Board Carrier from your vehicle, I recommend you do so separately to make things easier but I suppose you could do so as one...
view full answer... - Thanks for the information. My recommendation for your roof rack to carry your kayaks is the Rhino-Rack consisting of the following:
-Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 46" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA118S-2
-Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4 # RRRLKVA
-Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof # DK208
This combination will give you the best roof rack at the...
view full answer... - To carry a cargo box on the roof of your 2013 Audi A4 you would first need to start with a roof rack like the Rhino Rack roof rack that consists of part numbers # RRVA118B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK208 that you referenced.
Now this rack would have a crossbar spread of 27-1/2 inches (distance between the two bars measured on center). I have a solution for you, but the Sportrack SR7095 would not fit this crossbar spread so it would not be the correct one to use. The Sportrack can...
view full answer... - Yes, you can order the foot pack fit kit, # TH145084, separately for your 2012 Audi A4. This fit kit is compatible with your Evo Clamp Foot Pack, # TH710501 which is compatible with your bars so you will have no problems. The traverse feet # TH480R are still available but the custom fit kit 1462 has been discontinued so an upgrade of the feet is also required for this fit.
The only thing that you will want to take into consideration is the crossbar length. Thule recommends...
view full answer... - The towers for the original Thule SquareBar have been since discontinued so you are actually going to need to replace the entire assembly with either the:
-Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars # TH712400, with the Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710501, and the Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp and Edge Clamp Roof Rack Feet # TH145084 if you have the 4-door wagon with no existing crossbars.
Or
-Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars # TH712200, with the Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule...
view full answer... - For a roof rack capable of hauling a kayak and kayak carrier, I recommend using the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars part # RRVA118B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK208 in addition to our Thule DockGrip Kayak Carrier part # TH895. This will be the best option for your budget and as far as noise reduction goes as the aero bars will provide a much quieter ride in comparison to round/square cross bars.
Another more economical option involves our Inno Square Crossbar Roof Rack...
view full answer... - Sun or moonroofs that do not open up above the vehicle roof line can be opened without any interference with a roof rack such as Thule AeroBlade edge system # TH7602-TH7602. But if the roof does open above the roof line there is an easy way to determine if there will be interference. And this goes for any roof rack for your 2009 Audi A4. You will need one other person and the roof rack.
Place the roof rack in position according to the instructions but do not tighten it down....
view full answer... - One of the better kits we have for SUP boards are the aero-style crossbars. These assist in carrying Stand Up Paddleboards by being aerodynamic themselves, and their wider bases providing more stability for the boards.
I recommend the Thule AeroBlade Traverse kit, consisting of:
Thule WingBars, 47 inches, Silver, part # TH711200 or Black, TH711220
Thule Rapid Traverse Foot Pack, part # TH480R
Thule Fit Kit, part # THKIT1212
Thule is compatible with a wide range of...
view full answer... - The Malone SteelTop Roof Rack part # MPG202 does require factory raised side rails to install; so it will not fit on your Audi A4's naked roof.
If you want more room, or space to mount accessories on the bars I recommend Rhino Rack roof rack system, consisting of part # RRVA118B-2, aero cross bars in black or part # RRVA118S-2 for aero bars in silver, part # RRRLKVA, the Rhino Rack 2500 series legs, and part # DK031 the custom fit kit for your Audi. This roof rack system has...
view full answer... - The SportRack Semi-custom roof rack # SR1002 will fit your 2002 Audi A4. This roof rack fits many vehicles since it is not a completely custom fit rack.
For a custom fit rack that will fit much better you can use Rhino-Rack roof rack using the following parts:
Vortex Crossbars # RRVA118B-2
Feet # RRRLKVA
Custom clamp kit # DK031
This rack will fit the contours of the roof of your 2002 Audi A4 sedan with naked roof much better than a semi-custom rack.
view full answer... - You have two options.
The first is that if there is a number on the front of the lock, you can replace the key by searching "THKEYN####" in our search bar, where #### is the number on the front of the lock. If you have less than three numbers, don't add any zeros. For example, a cylinder labeled "012" will be part # THKEYN012
The other option is to replace the entire lock assembly with part # 05011500000, which will include two keys for the lock. If the box is currently...
