I was not disappointed with my purchase. I put the racks on my F150, that I bought for surf fishing along the Jersey beach. The racks are performing well and even though I thought that the initial cost of the racks was a little steep, my Rhino Racks are worth every penny.

I've only just installed this rack but it seems alright so far. The most annoying thing for installation was the length to cut the rubber strips was wrong in the instructions. I had to re-cut them and will have to do so again in order to get the rack to lock, leaving them in multiple pieces which seems un-ideal.

Installation was relatively easy. Like others have mentioned here, make sure you pay attention to the instructions. Make sure the pads with arrows are pointing to the front of the car and you're relatively accurate with the suggested mounting measurements.
I rode with them on the car for about 900 miles - hot and rainy weather - and they make a really weird noise. Haven't been able to confirm if the noise came from the wind rushing in between the roof and the bars, or, as my uncle thinks, from the slot spaces under the bars that hold the 4 mounts.
I later attached a Leader Accessories Upgraded Roof Rack (64"x 39"x 5') carrier basket to the top of the rails and the noise went away. The carrier has a wind deflector in the front, go figure.
I drove another 1000 miles with the rails and carrier with some stuff in it and it handled very well.
In any case, I like the way they look on our 2016 Honda CRV SE. Admittedly, I'm scared to take the mounts off to see if they leave a dent or scratch. I'm pretty sure they will, but still happy with them.
I'll try and update this review after I remove them.

The Rhino Rack is a well designed product and very well made - The fit for my car worked well and it took about 45 minutes to assemble, adjust and install. It will work well for transporting bikes and surfboards. The assembly kit included a long shaft hex wrench and handle which made assembly and installation much easier.

Rhino rack 2500 with euro bars. Aero crossbars not needed because rack is easily removable when not in use.
13 ft 85 lb fishing kayak 2010 Toyota Matrix. Car has slanting roof and variable thickness roofline. See photo. OEM rack position would make front of kayak point up in the air causing dangerous lift.
Rhino rack provides different length clamps for the slanting/tapering thickness roofline - rack is positioned for level load.
Etrailer excellent website with detailed photos allows easy comparison. Prices and selections better than manufacturer's and other websites.
Customer service is also excellent, they promptly responded to calls/emails even on weekends and made extra effort to get out-of-stock items delivered much faster than expected.

I bought the roof rack to carry kayaks back and forth from Pennsylvania to Florida. The rack is solid and performs that task very well. My plan was to take the rack off and on but I decided to just leave it on. I do notice some wind noise since I've added the rack but it does not distract me and I would say that it is not excessive but it is noticeable.
I did have problems during the installation. I mounted the racks on a Ford 250 super duty. And the instructions were very clear as to where the feet that's support the rack where to be installed. Plastic strips are cut and the feet that support the rack on the roof push up to the cut plastic strips and that is what determines placement. I read the instructions several times and had seen an installation on another truck owned by a friend of mine. When I pushed the feet to the proper position I could not attached the clamps from the rack feet to the rain gutter on the truck which holds the whole assembly on the roof. They were too short. I spoke to Etrailer and a consensus was that I had cut the strips correctly. Etrailer's input of course was over the phone and they could not actually see or measure anything that I did. Nevertheless, in order to install the rack I had to move the feet on each side a bit closer to the rain gutter on the truck. I did not think that this would make any difference and based on the performance I have not noticed any problems. I would have given this product and excellent rating if I did not have to deal with the little problem that I had with the fit. As I said I have not taken it off the roof and I reach up and check it now and then and it's as solid as the day I put it on.

This roof rack is very solid and well-made. It was reassuring when I looked up my car online and saw a video of it being installed on that very car. The instruction manual is a little hard to follow and could be simplified, in my opinion. That said, the instructions and recommended measurements seem to be spot on.

DO NOT buy this roof rack. It will rip off of your car while you drive on the highway, leaving you with $900 worth of damages to your car.
This summer I got a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, which came without a factory installed roof rack. I inquired if the dealership could put one on for me, as I go camping every year and take kayaks on a 6 hour trip to the Adirondacks . They told me this specific car could not have a roof rack from the dealership, I’m assuming because it would have needed to be installed before the airbags were put into place along the roof line. The dealership directed me to look online for third party options and get a roof rack through that avenue.
After doing significant research, my fiance and I decided on this brand. We installed it exactly how the directions indicated, spending nearly two hours with a measuring tape checking & rechecking to ensure the proper fit. We drove with the empty roof rack on the car for two weeks, making sure it was sturdy and wouldn’t come loose from the car. No issues were noted and we were pleased that it didn’t create too much humming or buzzing noises when driving at highway speeds.
Before we left, we re-tightened each piece to the specifications mentioned (included plastic tool becoming straight) since it had been on the car for a while before we added the weight of the kayaks. We made it 4.5 hours out of 6 before the roof rack ripped off the car and sent both kayaks into the middle of the highway while we were driving nearly 70mph. My fiance and I had to pull to the shoulder and run into the highway to get the pieces of roof rack and haul the kayaks out of the path of oncoming traffic.
Luckily the boats did not hit any other cars and did not cause an accident, although this could have easily happened. The boats were still attached to the roof rack with our straps and hooks, but the entire roof rack ripped off, causing paint chips and dents in multiple places along the roof of the car. The two opinions from the body shops I’ve taken the car to estimate the damage at $900.
I will NEVER use a third party roof rack again and will tell everyone I know to NOT buy this product. This could have caused multiple accidents and injured many people!

Thanks for your feedback Trent. I did reach out to my contacts at Rhino Rack and they explained that for their 2500 pad & clamp roof racks systems require the user to always strap kayaks down at the front and rear tow points below the bumpers on the vehicle. Kayak’s create significant upward force on the DK kit clamps and when travelling at 60-80 MPH the DK clamps will jar loose if the kayak is not secured correctly per the installation instructions.

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.

Great Fit and Great Looks. Great customer Service!!!
I have been a Thule guy for the last 20 years but thought I would give these a try based on reviews read.
Ordered the following for my 2016 Chevy Silverado:
1 Rhino-rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - 59 - Silver - Qty 2
1 Rhino-rack 2500 Leg Kit For Vortex Aero Crossbars - Qty 4
1 Dk Fit Kit For Rhino Rack 2500 Series Legs - Naked - Qty 4
Received the order from etrailer and upon opening the crossbar package I noticed that the rubber inserts were not in the box. e-mailed customer service and Carol C responded within an hour and said she would have them sent out within 24 hours.
About 30 minutes later, Carol called me as she was getting the order ready to ship and said that the Rhino racks typically put the rubber inserts inside the bars and not in the box. She waited on the line while I checked and sure enough she was right.
Installation instructions were good but I recommend watching the installation video on youtube that makes the directions easier to work with.
Fitment was perfect. And these are fit to my truck so reinstallation is a breeze especially with the small marker arrows for alignment. (unlike my old thules with the crossbars that had to be remeasured every installation) They also hold my thule kayak racks and my bike racks.
Thank you Carol and etrailer for a great product and experience.

First a big thanks to the Support Team! One of the Vortex Strips that ship inside of the load bars was wedged in there when I received them, and on top of that, not enough of the strips were provided to cover the entire length of the load bars. the etrailer team got them for me from Rhino-Rack and sent them out to me ASAP.
Installation was fairly simple. I highly recommend watching the installation video on YouTube in addition to reading the instructions. The instructions are well written, but watching someone else do it made it super easy to understand. Installation took me roughly 1 1/2 hours, mostly because I didn't watch the video until i was about 3/4 of the way done.
The racks are very sturdy and make no noticeable wind noise! Grabbing the towers and trying to move or shake them, I am actually moving the car, not the racks. I haven't strapped anything up yet, but I have full confidence that these racks can handle my needs (3 kayaks tied to a stacker system).

Product comes in three parts (all ship together) to properly fit different vehicles. Installation was fairly simple. I got the job done in just about an hour. I plan on attaching kayak carriers to carry my kayaks. My other vehicle is a Jeep, and it is just too tall for me to easily get the kayaks on and secure. My Prius is much lower, and it will be much easier to get the kayaks on and off.

These racks are great on my Chevy Silverado. I would also like to give my appreciation for the great customer service. These racks came with rubber inserts that run the length of the bar.

I've installed the rest of the strips and they are looking great. Thanks for the great customer service.

I am a stickler for reading directions. I was able to assemble and install the Rhino Rack with little to no difficulty. It fits my 2017 Honda CRV perfectly. I have not yet tried it out with a canoe, however, I feel it will work quite nicely. And, it make little to no noise even without a fairing wind diverter. The customer service was extremely helpful as it was a gift from my wife. She wanted to be sure it was the correct type for our car. Also, the price was right!!!

I am giving this product 1 star due to the difficulty I had with what is supposed to be a very simple installation. I have a 2016 ford edge with a panoramic moon roof. Because the entire roof is made of glass I wanted to be very careful. Thus I followed the instructions word for word. Which resulted in many issues. First the pads for the front rack as stated caused the rack to be a slope. This issue would be fixed by simply rotating the front right and front left pad with each other. I confirmed with an etrailer technician that they were misprinted and should be switched. Then based on the measure for both the front and back racks resulted in most of the pad to be sitting on the glass instead of the top lip of the car (non-glass hard surface of the car) I tighten based on this measurement and saw the glass start to bend on the corners so I decided to follow up as it did not seem correct. After reading several reviews and speaking with a technician he confirmed that it should not sit that way and I would need to adjust the measurement previously stated to a larger value such that the pad sits on the outer lip. This resulted it me adjusting, testing adjusting testing until I felt it was correct. Finally it was installed, sturdy, and looked great. Then another issue. When I am cruising through national parks enjoying the scenery I like have my windows downs and enjoy the fresh air. Well as it turns out when I cruise between 25 mph to 60 mph here is a loud whistling sound coming from the racks. The sounds appears to be coming from the wind that goes through the metal clamps and the car (there is about a 1 inch gap since these are semi-custom parts- and can actually be seen on pictures etrailer posted). This loud whistling is annoying especially when trying to enjoy the piece and quite nature has to offer. Thus I am not happy with this purchase. To be fair, the racks hold items well and feel sturdy enough to handle some abuse. But overall I am dissatisfied with this product.

According to the linked installation instructions, the pads for each tower foot should be facing so that the arrows are point outward. On your Edge with a panoramic roof the small lip would sit on the glass to roof edge and the rounded edge would slope down to the door jamb. The center line of the front bar should be 15 mm forward of the door seam between the front and rear door. The rear bar will be 700 mm from the center of the front bar. There should also be a channel on the under side of the roof bars that has increments on it and that should be trimmed to fit to reduce wind noise. Frequently our customers have an issue with wind noise, but they did not install the strip on the under side of each foot location, the strip should be cut and would fit on either side of the tower. We also have a install video that shows this roof rack system on a 2015 Ford Edge with a panoramic roof that I have also linked.

We love our Rhino Racks! We got them to haul our kayaks around on our crossovers. These were our first racks we've ever installed to a vehicle so we struggled a little bit to figure them out, but once we did figure it out, it was super easy.
Mostly importantly, we initially ordered the wrong rack in error. etrailer was helpful and accommodating and made the return process super easy and helped us get the right product ordered. I would definitely recommend this company and these roof racks.

This is a very sturdy rack. It fits great on my car and it's easy to use.
My only issue was with the original installation. The instructions had an error with the placement of the rack feet on the crossbar. I used the dimensions given in the manual but they were off by 10 cm. I had to adjust the feet in 10 cm on each side of the crassbar for the feet to sit correctly on the roof of my car. A very minor issue.
Overall, a great rack system. The single kayak kit was easy to install and works like a charm.
Thanks Rhino Racks!!!!!

The Rhino Vortex Rack was easy to install and is very solid and secure. I'm using it to transport two Kayaks and it works great.

Rack offers good flexibility for adding accessories. The wife says the aero shape is way cool!

Got a MDX A-Spec and didn't want to put on the factory side rails and cross bars because it diminishes the sporty look. This rhino rack is a great solution for me because i can put these cross bars on for the top box and bike rack but can easily take it off to get back to the original sleek look. I'm happy with the product. Solid construction. I'm confident this will hold the load well without harming the car. I'm looking forward to using my original box top and my new bike racks. Also, thrilled that i can use this rack on my volvo too just by getting the volvo clamps. Great service from Michelle S. She answered all my questions and got me in the right products. Delivery was FAST. My only suggestion/improvement: the installation instructions. Had to read them a few time to 'get it'. It seemed overwhelming initially but the installation was pretty straight forward.

I finally had a chance to use the rack I put on my car (Toyota Camry) and I can now say that it worked perfectly. My 12.6” kayak fit nicely on the rack and was easily secured. Though the rack was easy to install, I worried that I might not have the strength to tighten the screws enough to insure that it would stay put on the roof. But the tool that comes with the rack is made in such a way that it shows when enough torque is being applied. Still, one never knows until the load is secured on the rack and taken for a ride. I'm happy to say everything stayed put. Good product. Thanks.

All the Rhino Rack products listed, ie Nautic kayak carrier,anchor straps,2500 series legs,and Vortex crossbars were shipped extremely quickly by etrailer, with exceptional
customer assistance, and were all found to be of the highest quality materials.
Installation was relatively simple with an assistant and the video by Rhino Rack was
a valuable tool...once on my car, the system proved to be safe, secure and as
sturdy as I could hope for.
I would certainly recommend Rhino Rack systems in future, and will certainly rely
on etrailer for any of my future needs.

Ended up putting this on my 2019 Nissan Rogue. The end result looks great. Because my car is newer the measurements it came with in the directions were incorrect. So if you are putting it on a newer vehicle you have to just kind of wing it or find the proper measurements elsewhere, which is a bit time consuming but definitely worth it. It whistles a little on the highway but I’m sure it can be adjusted so it won’t. All parts fit well and it looks great!

After fine tuning, fits perfectly and very stable for kayak hauling. I shopped for months for a "naked" rack for my Ranger. After reading so many glowing reviews, I went with the Rhino over the other two major brands of roof racks.

Bought this for my 2017 Supercrew Raptor, along with the leg and foot adapters as a kit. The bed on the Raptor is very short (5.5 ft), and I could not put kayaks in the bed while towing a trailer.
Everything fit extremely well, and the instructions were easy to follow. They look good on the truck, and did not interfere with the sunroof. Will work well for carrying 3 kayaks on the roof.

Rhino Vortex roof rack (w/attachments). Once instructions have been read through then installation was pretty straightforward. Quite pleased with this rack! Fit, design, wind noise reduction all better than expected. etrailer came through as a first rate provider-nothing but good words for them.

As far as I am concerned, Rhino-Rack leads the market sector. Premium products, services, delivery, instructions, & humans actually answer the customer service lines.
Additionally, etrailer's delivered was also timely & professional. Both were a pleasure to deal with.

Very happy with the results. Rhino Rack would not confirm a fit for my 2019 Chevy Equinox LT. The installation instructions listed cutting the front measuring strips at 120 mm for the front crossbar for the Euro bar. This left my legs a good six inches too narrow to span my roof. After some tweaking I achieved a good sold fit. None of your competitors would claim they had a fit kit for the 2019 Equinox. Thanks to etrailer.com for recommending this product.

Very tough, sturdy, and well built product and easy self install! We installed on a Corolla IM hatchback in no time with the help of "how to" vids on etrailer.com. The vids saved us an additional $100 wanted by a local install company. We teach and our little family travels all summer. This product is a life saver. With additional roof basket, we can now carry all our luggage and camping gear with a compact fuel efficient vehicle rather than a gas hog.

I have yet to haul anything on these racks, but they look awesome and seem incredibly stable.
I will have to switch out some hardware on my bike and kayak carriers, however, the increased cross bar thickness makes me much more comfortable with these bars as mounting points.
My only negative feedback is that the fit spec sheet was not included in my packing. I had to visit several sites to find the correct sheet for my vehicle.

Since my vehicle didn’t have existing roof rails, I also purchased the fit kit which worked out great! It is a solid rack system that I have been very happy with; and no humming sounds at highway speeds. The product delivery was on time just as etrailer predicted.

I can not be more satisfied with my experience with etrailer. I'm in the military stationed in Italy, and it can be difficult to get stuff delivered my FPO/APO address. Not only does etrailer deliver to FPO/APO without a hassle, but I received my rack system in less than a week! Because I'm overseas, my credit card was getting flagged; Lisa at customer service cleared it up immediately and got my order shipped the same day. Five stars; etrailer has my highest recommendation.

Fairly easy to install onto my 2017 Honda CR-V. The crossbars feel very sturdy and are securely attached to the vehicle. Took me about 30 minutes to get it installed and could be done even quicker if you get help from another person. The bars themselves are a little fat so my Thule ski rack has a super tight fit. There is very minimal wind noise, so I'll probably be getting a fairing for that. The instructions felt a bit jumbled but with just the measurements alone, you can install it with a bit of common sense.

Fit is good, sturdy rack, video instructions are great and easy to put on. Locks are not that great but will work for me. If someone really wanted to get to the bolt they could easily break the lock covers but then they would have to have the correct wrench. I would still recommend this as a great after market rack.

Etrailer web site and service were great as usual. The product leaves something to be desired. The instructions are both dysfunctional and, in the case of fitting on my 2012 Prius V - just plain wrong.
Got it on eventually but not super excited about the design. Haven't "put it under load" yet so can't comment on performance though I suspect it will be fine.
Based on this experience, would not consider this brand again.

I installed the rack on a 2018 F150 SuperCab. These racks are really nice medium load racks, well built and easy to install. If I followed the instructions the pads on the front cross bar would not sit down in the drip channels. I narrowed the front leg locations by 5mm per side or a total of 10mm or approximately .4". I sent the pics to Rhino Racks Engineering Department but have not heard back to see if they liked my fix. I like it! I recommend getting Rhino Racks approval before making these mods but that's what it took for mine to fit.

Luckily, I came across ETrailer where they helped by providing a list of all the parts and pieces to make it happen! Shipping didn’t take long and assembling was a piece of cake! I’m extremely happy with my purchase and will recommend this to anyone needing a rack! Thank you to everyone at ETrailer who have been so kind and helpful!

Jesse was great by answering all my questions and made me feel comfortable ordering the roof rack. Then it even showed up a day early!! It took us about an hour and a half to put the rack together and install it on our car. We did have to get online to watch the video because the printed instructions were great for the measurements, but not on how to put all the parts together. Before I wrote this review, I wanted to check out the performance - and once again, GREAT!
I will recommend this product and etrailer.com to everyone.

I bought this roof rack for my kayak. Previously, I was just using ratchet straps through the car. I finally got fed up because when it would rain the water would drain in through the straps into the car. I looked a long time and did a lot of research. The Rhino is definitely the best bang for your buck. Super rigid, easy to install, simplifies travel, and looks great. Etrailer, even with the 4th of July, sent the rack quickly. The direction specific for my Honda Cr-V was also very comprehension. Thank you!

I've very happy with my Rhino-Rack and with etrailer.
I ordered a Rhino-Rack from eTrailer for my 2015 Escape. My car has no rails (naked) so I had to order the 2500 Series legs and the DK Fit Kit in addition to the Vortex Aero Crossbars. The order arrived in about a week (free shipping!). I watched the helpful video etrailer provides and put the whole thing together in less than an hour. It's made well, has clear directions and seems sturdy on the car.

So far I am pleased overall. The only issue I had with install was that the measurements provided for the width between the feet were incorrect. The spec sheet said that it was for. 2016 Titan and I ordered for a 2018.
Once I recalculated the correct width install was a breeze.
I’m taking my family on an epic kayak adventure next week so we’ll really get to see how the rack performs.

I just received the roof racks and installed it same day. I have yet to put it to use with hauling stuff around and that is why i'm giving it a four star. I will upgrade to a five star once I start hauling items. So far the item is as expected. I will say the only part that confused me was learning where to put the correct footing (front left/front right/ rear left / rear right). After a few minutes, I was able to figure it out. It seems very sturdy and it was easy to install. Having the roof racks will help free up lots of space in our vehicle as we do lots of road trips / camping trips. The roof racks look great on my car and i'm very happy with my purchase.

After a year I’m still very happy with my Rhino Rack on my 2010 Subaru Legacy. Makes everything so much easier. A super sturdy and reliable rack!

I placed my order over the phone to ensure that I was ordering the correct parts for mounting the Rhino Rack to my vehicle. The product was shipped the same day and I received it just a couple days later. I was very pleased with the order process.
My only gripe is that the Rhino Rack installation instructions could have been more clear.

Looks like a very good product for my Chevy Colorado. Went on a shake down cruise with two kayaks and the rails performed very well with my Yakama kayak carriers. The only issue I had was having to adjust the post width by a centimeter or so from the printed recommendations in order to get the best fit with the rubber pads and the rooftop channels. This adjustment was also necessary to get the locking covers to close and lock. Looks like a great product I will use a lot. The quick shipping coordinated by Susan was greatly appreciated.

Arrived on time. Packaging looked a bit tattered but product seems to be in good shape. The bars use a different foot attachment than what I have so I also had to spend more money to upgrade. The system should stay standard especially when it’s essentilly the same design system.

So far so good. The Aero 2500 racks went on in a couple of hours as I was not in a rush, wanted to do it properly and understand all I needed to to remove and reinstall these in the future. I did manage to get the Rhinorack logo facing backward on the front and forward on the back. Sorry, didn’t intend to but I’m not going to reverse them at this point. I did not take pics of these on my 2017 Prius. But they look good, less clunky than my old square Thule racks.

Looking for a roof rack for my Toyota Corolla IM 2017 and chose the Rhino rack-Vortex Aero bars combination. It is strong rack, good quality and nice finish (I picked the black color). Installation requires patience but not difficult, instructions could be more detailed. Happy with the solution it gave me, finding a good rack to transport my Mountain bike to the trail. Highly recommended!

Only gripe is the packaging was a little squished and there were a few scratches on the bars. No worries though, it's gonna have way more from the kayak on top. Kit installed in about an hour. Barely any wind noise I can notice in the cab. Additionally the rod holders are MINT! Great service and product.

Last minute purchase of bars and basket - excellent pick! etrailer came through with expedited delivery and the install was just per the instructions. It can be tricky but the paperwork was complete, the descriptions accurate and no pieces left over; always a plus.
The rack and basket are VERY sturdy, it is all very well made; my only concern would be the L-shaped clamps that hook to the door frame. I think the tension down will keep them in place but it would certainly be the one part of the system to check regularly.
A winner!

I bought the Rhino Rack 2500 Series Legs, the Vortex Aero Crossbars, the 2500 Series Custom Fit Kit for the 2500 Series Legs, and a Thule Portage Canoe Carrier. All items arrived when George said they would, and I was given status updates throughout the whole process. The website was helpful in letting me know that these kits are NOT all in one kits. That is probably the best feature of the site in that it lets you know based on your vehicle what total number of kits you will need. All said, the racks and carrier worked well in transporting my canoe across state lines. I highly recommend the site.

The entire rack system (tracks, feet, aero crossbars, ladder straps, and load stops) installed and worked great for the intended use. Also, the service from etrailer was excellent.
The only drawback to this system is the necessity of purchasing a pneumatic rivet gun ($40) for mounting the tracks, but hey, it's a custom rack and i ended up with a cool tool.
Thanks.

Appears to be a very secure fit. I will send pictures soon.

Had a piece of my order that was on back order and it doesn't tell you when you order online that a product is back ordered so I didn't know until after my purchase. I recommend ordering over the phone, I know I will next time. But the product itself is exactly what I wanted. Very satisfied.

The racks look great and are solidly anchored.
I have yet to use them under load but I am pleased with the final product so far.

I was looking for a good looking product to carry my two kayaks with our camper.
the product arrived in the time they said it would and was packed very well.
after reading other reviews on assembly it was suggested that you read the directions first.
after reading the directions I couldn't find some rubber strips so I called you company and they were very friendly and helpful and I found them I just didn't look in the right place. then started to assembly the roof racks and within 25 min. they were installed.
would recommend the product and company.

My Rhino-Rack Aero 2500 roof racks fit solidly on my 2007 Honda Civic EX. I was really impressed with the construction and strength of the rack system. Also the versatility of the 'legs' with a swivel pad allow them to fit any roof pitch perfectly. The clamps are so solid, nothing could knock these racks off. I added a paddleboard attachment and went surfing today. The black racks also look great with the black trim on my silver Honda. Great product at a much better price than Yakima or Thule.

Very good quality product and with the ability to match the vehicle with the specific crossbars and mounting brackets, it made it simple to install. Only issue I have is with the "whistling" that it makes. I saw comments on this before in reviews, with possible "fixes" but I haven't been able to get mine to stop whistling. Gonna have my wife peer out the sunroof while going down the road to try and locate/isolate where the sound originates from.

This is a great roof rack, VERY sturdy once attached! I used it to carry two kayaks on the freeway multiple times and it was flawless. It is quite loud, but that is to be expected with this type of roof rack. Having the sunroof open doesn't help either... :-)

I followed install instructions very closely, pretty straight forward, but you have to ensure you measure twice and cut once. Not a complicated install but how well you do it determines the performance of the rack. Test drive showed it to be very quiet at city and high way speeds. A paper tape measure should be included with install kit, who has anything in the USA the measures millimeters or 32nds of an inch. Would definitely recommend product, feel it is sturdy and durable. Will meet my needs to carry RV equipment and a canoe if needed.

It is also quiet with no wind noise & you can tie surf gear on top like racks (use padded rack pads) & or put things inside for more carrying space. Also a cool stylish look on the Scion XB or any other compact car like my wifes Toyota Yaris... We move it back & forth to who ever needs the Cargo Basket for the days Adventure.

As always from etrailer.com, a great product at a reasonable price. Customer service help was not necessary in this case to choose the best product for my vehicle and needs, but has been a painless process for other needs in the past. Etrailer.com is my go-to for aftermarket cargo hardware needs.
As always, however, the manufacturer (not etrailer.com) provides marginal instructions. In spite of that, initial assembly and installation on my wife's 2016 Escape took about an hour, and it looks like the rack will do a great job for us on family trips. I anticipate removal or reinstall Atkin in the future to take less than 15 minutes for one person.

This Rhino Rack set for a clip-on rack system was an excellent value, and easy to install, with great stability, a load capacity that is a bit more than their competitors, and very little road noise. I'll be buying more Rhino Rack components from etrailer in the future.

I bought the Rhino-Rack for my 2014 KIA Soul "with a sun roof" and my wife and I installed it in about a half hour. it was soo easy and fits like it was manufactured just for my car. Everything I saw said that it was not for cars for the sun roofs but i measured and checked several friends before I ordered and bought and there looks to be no problems. It fits very well and the clearance is very sufficient. I can now carry my wood or kayaks or larger stuff around.

I purchased this rack for a "new to me" Honda CRV. I chose it for three reasons: the design is supposed to minimize wind noise, it is rated for a significantly higher load weight than many others, and the price was very reasonable. It also happens to be very nice looking.
Assembly was pretty straight forward. I assembled the two units on the dining room table in about 45 minutes. It could be done much more quickly but I think it's good to take your time and read the instructions carefully. Mounting on the car roof was quick - about 15 minutes. Some reviewers complained that only two crossbar end caps locked. That was not the case with mine. All four locked into place
I haven't driven the car on the highway yet, but there was no added noise driving around town. Etrailer shipped promptly, and all the required components were included.

Great product and excellent service. I had originally ordered the Thule rack for my truck. I had it down between the Thule and the Rhino. Long story short could not get the Thule. etrailer worked with me no problems and I said I would take the Rhino. Delivery was quicker then they had said and package came perfectly packaged. Installed the racks on my Ram crew cab and carried 3 kayaks 300 miles. The rack did great and fits well. Don't spend more than you have to.

The Rhino-Rack was shipped the next day and was received in under 4 days to my door. The E-trailer packaging was sufficient but the OEM packaging on the rails were all beat up and actually one of them appears to have been opened and possibly returned. It was missing the key for the end caps and 2 of the upper rail strips as well as had some nicks and gouges in the rail itself (appeared used).....I would have tried to return for a new one but I needed it the next day so I had to go ahead and use it against my better judgment.
The install was pretty straight forward. The first assembly took me about 30-45 minutes to assemble and mount to the vehicle. The second went much quicker after learning on the first and only took about 15 minutes.
The parts quality is very good. I would say it is on par with Thule and Yakima without question. The rack is very secure when mounted. I have this mounted on a 2015 Ram 2500 (8,300lbs) and was able to rock the entire truck side to side by the rails wit zero movement in the rails or legs.
I have not been able to use the rack yet but purchased it primarily for hauling 2 kayaks when we go RVing. I will give a follow up review after I have used them.

My order arrived sooner than I expected which was great. Assembly was easy. The installation was trial and error as the crossbar instructions did not list my 2014 F-150 so I had to make adjustments to the leg placement so the racks set right. The 59 inch bars only came with three rubber buffer strips each. that left gaps in the top of the bars which produce a whistle even at slow speeds. The whistle is very ennuying as I can hear it even with the windows rooled up.

Comments
In order to prevent damaging the vehicle the rack is installed on, its important that the capacity of the rack and the vehicle roof are both observed. Youll want to avoid loading any more weight than the capacity of whichever component has the lowest weight rating. Also, Rhino Rack specifically designs the rack to install at the points where the vehicle roof is the strongest, so its extremely important that the racks are installed according to the installation instructions.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
Delivery was fast - racks seem solid. Happy with product. Like the one tool (plus a knife and tape measure) installation. Could use a little more emphasis on the interplay of the two instruction sheets - the general one and the specific measurements for the car model. Maybe big bold capital letters would help in the instructions (when you need to go to the other sheet). The arrows on the black pads are kind of hard to see, so it took a few times to get the configuration correct (pad type, pad direction, foot direction). But that was the only snag, all else is good. The online installation video was helpful. The total cost was almost half what the local outdoor store wanted to charge for Yakima racks (that were only rated 100 lbs.) Since I am carrying a canoe a lot, I went for the 165 lbs rated Rhino rack. I also widened the separation of the racks on the roof about two inches as well. This was for the canoe - and also to get it level, it was a bit down in the nose with the measurements in the instructions.. By moving the rear rack more astern, the spread was wider and level.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
I have on this product for over a year now and after installing it on the roof of my car, I haven’t had to touch it. I’ve put this rack through the ringer in what I’ve at the times idiotically strapped to it, from full sheets of drywall, 200 pounds of siding and numerous other construction projects, this rack has come in clutch. I have also used this for more of what it’s designed for in carrying my surfboard, Wakeboard, and other sporting equipment never having to worry about it once. The only downside is that it does create more wind noise. But it’s not that noticeable. If this is a concern just upgrade to the aero bars!

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
Where do I start?
I've been whitewater kayaking for 22 or so years now. I've always used used either Yakima or Thule products...
Until I bought a 2015 Nissan Rogue with a naked roof. The curvature of the roof and large door jams mean that Yakima and Thule can't make racks for them. I went to a place that does custom installs and again because of the curvature of the roof, they couldn't give me a rack. This meant no kayaking which is really bad news.
Enter the Rhino rack system. I purchased the feet, the fit kit, the cross bars and a Yakima "big stack" stacker. The first issue I had is the reccomended size for the Nissan Rogue is only 48 inches. Way too small too haul 4-5 (very light) whitewater kayaks. I called etrailer and they were SUPER helpful, told me I can buy the 65 in cross bars and they'll work fine.
I held my breath and placed my order. I was nervous leaving my trusted name brands. The order arrived super fast (they told me it would arrive by Friday but it actually arrived on Thursday) and everything was packaged rock solid. I was impressed.
I read the instructions and put the rack system on my car. It took about a hour (it was hot and I worked slowly) but the rack system is SUPER SOLID. I love it. Rhino might have a "forever" customer out of me.
-The rack system is very stable. I can't move it with my hands by pushing or pulling.
-The rubber stripping you put on the top and bottom of the bar is an awesome added feature AND it reduces wind noise.
-Adding the fairing reduced wind noise even further. With four boats on the roof you couldn't hear any extra noise.
The ONE thing I dislike is that you need to use the supplied Allen wrench to take the rack on and off the car. It's a small complaint, but other systems I've used in the past don't have them.
I paid much less for this system than I would have if I purchased one of the aforementioned systems, but I'm really really satisfied with the product. We will see how well it holds up over long-term use, but it looks awesome!

Product came quickly and as described. I would rate it higher but there wasn't the measurement needed to set the brackets horizontally, I had to figure it out through trial and error. Also, a high pitched whistling sound is heard at high speeds when the air moves across the grooves in the bars. Functionally there is nothing wrong with the product and it works well as intended for my 2015 Ford Escape.

Excellent product! Fits like a glove on my 2016 Hyundai Elantra. Install was fairly quick and painless. My dad and I installed it in about 20 minutes with no problems. I would definitely recommend installing this with two people to make sure the bars are evenly spaced on the vehicle. I love the way it looks and you can tell it is great quality. I plan to leave the rack on permanently and just change out the various gear attachments. I also bought the Rhino Rack Bike Mount and they fit perfectly together.
There is very little wind noise and you can't even hear it when the sunroof is closed. I got up to 60ish mph and only noticed some noise when the radio was off and I was actively listening for any extra noises.
I am very impressed with this roof rack already. Great price and great quality product. Can't wait to get more use out of it!

Excellent price and quick shipping. Excellent support for missing bar end cap. Rack was easy to put together and install and video was helpful. My only complaint is when trying to tie down kayak to cradle it is not easy to keep the loop over the top of the upright "U" shaped bar, it keeps siding down. We wrapped two pieces of foam around the bar to create a channel to hold the strap now it is easy.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
I bought this roof rack kit for my 2015 Nissan Rogue awd 5-dr. The shipping time was excellent and everything arrived together and undamaged. The instructions are simple and easy to follow and I had it put together and ready to mount in about 30 min. Aligning it on the roof is definitely easier with two people, but can be done alone. The forward rack's rubber feet fit seamlessly on the roof of my car and tightened snugly with no worries of it flying off. Be sure to follow the directions for the included torque wrench and everything will form perfectly. The rear rack's rubber feet form is a little off and they don't sit flush with the car's body, but after torquing to the required tightness the rear rack fit securely with only a tiny gap between the body and feet. On the road, I made it up to 75 mph before any whistling was noticed, but some music at mid volume drowned it out. Be sure to cut the rubber and fit everything as precise as possible. This will prevent drag and whistling. The quality of the metal and plastic isn't as high as other brands, but when those other brands don't fit your car you have to compromise and this would be my top pick.

One year update. The rack is still great in my opinion. It does make a little noise but not as much as I thought it would and I havent taken it off yet. The only problem I had with it was that one of the plastic end caps fell off. Over all I give it a 9 out of ten.

I have attached pics of the rack attached to a 2014 F-350. I went with the 65” crossbars and they worked great! This gives me enough room to lay two kayaks flat on the bars. I would rate the Rhino Rack roof kit , etrailer site information and etrailer customer service all 5’s! Always great to deal with your company. My only recommendation would be to make it easier for customers to submit product reviews and pics. Thanks for all your assistance.

I used this rack to mount two 65lbs kayaks to my vehicle and travel. One of many trips was over a thousand miles (round trip) and they moved maybe half a centimeter a piece during. I was extremely pleased with how easily I could adjust them. The original shipment had everything that was supposed to be in it and the directions were realitively clear. I had them together and on in roughly an hour. When they are off the roof the only issue I have arises. The rubber feet that sit directly on the roof tend to fall off easily. Not a big deal.

Bought this Rhino-Rack to install on my 2013 Hyundai Elantra. This product was a great value. Installation was very easy. Processing and shipping was incredibly fast. I had one little minor issue with a screw head that was stripped, and although it did not delay installation, customer service was all over it, and had a new one out to me in no time. I have purchased from etrailer.com before, and always had great product and customer service.

I am still digging my Rhino Rack! In fact, this Spring I bought two sets of kayak carriers, from etrailer, of course, that attach to the Rhino-Rack. The kayak carriers are super easy to attach and use. Ive use Rhino-Rack to carry my canoe, my kayaks, building materials and even small furniture pieces.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
My three star review has to do with the product, not the service. I am quite mechanically inclined and have installed and assembled many things over my 45 years. I followed the instructions very carefully but the measurements for the strips were just off. It was difficult to tell because of the location but probably at least 6 or 8 mm on each end. I basically had to just loosen them and figure out where they needed to be and then try to tighten them without moving them.
Then, I measured very carefully according to the instructions where they should sit on the roof. This went fairly well but having to readjust as discussed in the previous paragraph made it more difficult than it should have been.
Once I got them parallel and where I thought they should be, it was difficult snug them down very tightly. If you tightened one end too much the other foot started to pick up. So I would go tighten that one down and go back and forth until it just wouldn't work anymore. And yes I did loosen the Fasteners on the bars themselves so that they could settle into the right configuration.
Overall, I think they are a pretty decent set but it was difficult to install because the instructions were way off. Also when I fasten my kayak to the bars, the feet tend to raise up a little. I tightened everything even a little more than the fancy torque wrench indicated.
Having said all that, this is probably a pretty decent set for the price. Also when I get the Swagman piece assembled and on the roof bars, I think the kayak will sit better in the saddle mount and I won't have to tighten so much to the bars. I think the multi shaped Keel of my kayak made it difficult to get comfortably tight for me, as I do a lot of Interstate driving and I wanted it very secure.
Would I buy this again? I'm really not sure. It's my first rack. If I could absolutely not spend any more money then yes I probably would. I also think the Swagman Saddle Rack will make it an even better setup.

I’m just going to say thank you so much for this product. Rhino Rack is a great addition to the body of my car, it looks sharp and sporty but the most important thing is that Rhino Rack gives me the strength and security I was looking to carry my bikes in a very safety way, for me and for the other drivers. This product is so easy to install,you just have to follow the instructions in the video and you will do it yourself no question about it, just like I did it myself.

Install onto factory fix points was relatively easy, being very careful to not cross thread anything. The numbered instructions had good pictures and were easy to follow. Cut the bar bottom inserts to the right size and the assembled racks fit the car well. Seems sturdy. Attached swagman fork down racks and put bikes on and drove around some to test it out. Time will tell but this seems like a good rack for the money.

These Aero Racks are perfect on my Scion XB, stylish cool look & importantly Quiet with absolutely no wind noise! Also bought the Rocky Mount Cargo Basket & it comes WITH a full bunji net cover. It is also quiet with no wind noise & you can tie surf gear on top like racks (use padded rack pads) & or put things inside for more carrying space. Also a cool stylish look on the Scion XB or any other compact car like my wifes Toyota Yaris... We move it back & forth to who ever needs the Cargo Basket for the days Adventure.

The boxes were delivered quickly and promptly (earlier than expected). The instructions were easy to follow. I just needed the space to lay everything out and to match the numbers to the correct items. My only issue was that the specs for my 2016 Nissan Versa Note SV asked for 144mm for the front, but in fact, it needed to be 148mm. The rear asked for 142mm, but it needed to be 144.5mm. Once I figured that out, the rest was straight forward. The crossbars are super sturdy and the rubberized top is a nice add to keep things from slipping. Thank you!
I plan on installing a V-boat rack on the car rack. I can't wait to transport canoes!

The roof rack installed perfectly. It looks great and works wonderfully. It's been installed for several weeks and "per the instructions" I have checked to make sure it doesn't need to be re-tightened. It hasn't budged! I bought it specifically for J-bars to haul two kayaks and there are no problems. I'm now considering other options to add as these are so versatile!

I've only just installed this rack but it seems alright so far. The most annoying thing for installation was the length to cut the rubber strips was wrong in the instructions. I had to re-cut them and will have to do so again in order to get the rack to lock, leaving them in multiple pieces which seems un-ideal.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
Installation was relatively easy. Like others have mentioned here, make sure you pay attention to the instructions. Make sure the pads with arrows are pointing to the front of the car and you're relatively accurate with the suggested mounting measurements.
I rode with them on the car for about 900 miles - hot and rainy weather - and they make a really weird noise. Haven't been able to confirm if the noise came from the wind rushing in between the roof and the bars, or, as my uncle thinks, from the slot spaces under the bars that hold the 4 mounts.
I later attached a Leader Accessories Upgraded Roof Rack (64"x 39"x 5') carrier basket to the top of the rails and the noise went away. The carrier has a wind deflector in the front, go figure.
I drove another 1000 miles with the rails and carrier with some stuff in it and it handled very well.
In any case, I like the way they look on our 2016 Honda CRV SE. Admittedly, I'm scared to take the mounts off to see if they leave a dent or scratch. I'm pretty sure they will, but still happy with them.
I'll try and update this review after I remove them.

13 ft 85 lb fishing kayak 2010 Toyota Matrix. Car has slanting roof and variable thickness roofline. See photo. OEM rack position would make front of kayak point up in the air causing dangerous lift.
Rhino rack provides different length clamps for the slanting/tapering thickness roofline - rack is positioned for level load.
Etrailer excellent website with detailed photos allows easy comparison. Prices and selections better than manufacturer's and other websites.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
The parts were all high quality and went together easily. It mounted easily and have it on our Honda Pilot with a Thule box. Box does sit farther forward than if on bars on factory rails. I did have one problem, We put it together per instructions which called for one distance between feet for our bar but this was to short. We found a sticker on the ox saying to use one of the other measurements and this worked fine. We hadn't buttoned it up with end caps etc. just in case so wasn't bad. I would have also liked an explanation by the bolts holding the bar on were only tightened so much. They seemed loose, may bar needs some give? anyway it looks good and seems to be up to the task. I have the rack on a 2019 slick top Pilot. Didn't want the rails and crossbars nor the expense and I look forward to having a slick roof come snow season when cleaning off the roof of snow as we park outside.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
I bought the roof rack to carry kayaks back and forth from Pennsylvania to Florida. The rack is solid and performs that task very well. My plan was to take the rack off and on but I decided to just leave it on. I do notice some wind noise since I've added the rack but it does not distract me and I would say that it is not excessive but it is noticeable.
I did have problems during the installation. I mounted the racks on a Ford 250 super duty. And the instructions were very clear as to where the feet that's support the rack where to be installed. Plastic strips are cut and the feet that support the rack on the roof push up to the cut plastic strips and that is what determines placement. I read the instructions several times and had seen an installation on another truck owned by a friend of mine. When I pushed the feet to the proper position I could not attached the clamps from the rack feet to the rain gutter on the truck which holds the whole assembly on the roof. They were too short. I spoke to Etrailer and a consensus was that I had cut the strips correctly. Etrailer's input of course was over the phone and they could not actually see or measure anything that I did. Nevertheless, in order to install the rack I had to move the feet on each side a bit closer to the rain gutter on the truck. I did not think that this would make any difference and based on the performance I have not noticed any problems. I would have given this product and excellent rating if I did not have to deal with the little problem that I had with the fit. As I said I have not taken it off the roof and I reach up and check it now and then and it's as solid as the day I put it on.

Fit kit holds great and the roof rack feels extremely solid. The piece that goes in the door jam/under roof has a rubber coating so it doesn't damage your paint. The rubber pads that get attached to the legs are very soft and feel like they won't do any damage to paint on the roof.

This roof rack is very solid and well-made. It was reassuring when I looked up my car online and saw a video of it being installed on that very car.

The roof rack kit was installed on a 2019 Honda fit. Overall the kit seems good. Not much wind noise is noticeable below 50mph. The written paper instructions were not very good or straightforward. I found vague [online] videos to be more comprehensive. The measurements provided also were off just a bit for proper fitment so fiddling back and forth tweaking the position of the legs on the bars a bunch of times made it fit properly.

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.

Great Fit and Great Looks. Great customer Service!!!
I have been a Thule guy for the last 20 years but thought I would give these a try based on reviews read.
Ordered the following for my 2016 Chevy Silverado:
1 Rhino-rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - 59 - Silver - Qty 2
1 Rhino-rack 2500 Leg Kit For Vortex Aero Crossbars - Qty 4
1 Dk Fit Kit For Rhino Rack 2500 Series Legs - Naked - Qty 4
Received the order from etrailer and upon opening the crossbar package I noticed that the rubber inserts were not in the box. e-mailed customer service and Carol C responded within an hour and said she would have them sent out within 24 hours.
About 30 minutes later, Carol called me as she was getting the order ready to ship and said that the Rhino racks typically put the rubber inserts inside the bars and not in the box. She waited on the line while I checked and sure enough she was right.
Installation instructions were good but I recommend watching the installation video on youtube that makes the directions easier to work with.
Fitment was perfect. And these are fit to my truck so reinstallation is a breeze especially with the small marker arrows for alignment. (unlike my old thules with the crossbars that had to be remeasured every installation) They also hold my thule kayak racks and my bike racks.
Thank you Carol and etrailer for a great product and experience.

First a big thanks to the Support Team! One of the Vortex Strips that ship inside of the load bars was wedged in there when I received them, and on top of that, not enough of the strips were provided to cover the entire length of the load bars. the etrailer team got them for me from Rhino-Rack and sent them out to me ASAP.
Installation was fairly simple. I highly recommend watching the installation video on YouTube in addition to reading the instructions. The instructions are well written, but watching someone else do it made it super easy to understand. Installation took me roughly 1 1/2 hours, mostly because I didn't watch the video until i was about 3/4 of the way done.
The racks are very sturdy and make no noticeable wind noise! Grabbing the towers and trying to move or shake them, I am actually moving the car, not the racks. I haven't strapped anything up yet, but I have full confidence that these racks can handle my needs (3 kayaks tied to a stacker system).

This is a very sturdy rack. It fits great on my car and it's easy to use.
My only issue was with the original installation. The instructions had an error with the placement of the rack feet on the crossbar. I used the dimensions given in the manual but they were off by 10 cm. I had to adjust the feet in 10 cm on each side of the crassbar for the feet to sit correctly on the roof of my car. A very minor issue.
Overall, a great rack system. The single kayak kit was easy to install and works like a charm.

I finally had a chance to use the rack I put on my car (Toyota Camry) and I can now say that it worked perfectly. My 12.6” kayak fit nicely on the rack and was easily secured. Though the rack was easy to install, I worried that I might not have the strength to tighten the screws enough to insure that it would stay put on the roof. But the tool that comes with the rack is made in such a way that it shows when enough torque is being applied. Still, one never knows until the load is secured on the rack and taken for a ride. I'm happy to say everything stayed put. Good product. Thanks.

All the Rhino Rack products listed, ie Nautic kayak carrier,anchor straps,2500 series legs,and Vortex crossbars were shipped extremely quickly by etrailer, with exceptional
customer assistance, and were all found to be of the highest quality materials.
Installation was relatively simple with an assistant and the video by Rhino Rack was
a valuable tool...once on my car, the system proved to be safe, secure and as
sturdy as I could hope for.
I would certainly recommend Rhino Rack systems in future, and will certainly rely
on etrailer for any of my future needs.

Installed on a 2016 VW Passat. These Rhino Rack universal roof racks are an absolute nightmare.
The hold-down clamps have almost no rubber padding except on the contact surface and its extremely easy to scratch your car when trying to install them. You REALLY need 2 people to put these on.
The rubber pads fall off the racks all the time. I hang the racks in the garage and always have to spend time looking on the ground to see where the pads fell. Then comes trying to figure out which pad goes where on each rack. Absolute nightmare.

Ended up putting this on my 2019 Nissan Rogue. The end result looks great. Because my car is newer the measurements it came with in the directions were incorrect. So if you are putting it on a newer vehicle you have to just kind of wing it or find the proper measurements elsewhere, which is a bit time consuming but definitely worth it. It whistles a little on the highway but I’m sure it can be adjusted so it won’t. All parts fit well and it looks great!

The roof rack/fit kit set up I ordered was as expected and went on with little issue, one little glitch as I jumped to the typical male I don’t need instructions to know what I am doing response and ended up with a rear clamp on the front which was easily remedied. The only issue I had was paying for 3 day shipping on Wednesday and not having the package arrive until Monday. I am not a veteran of the shipping lingo and apparently that meant business days, not actual days. Lesson learned

Rhino Euro Rack arrived in good order. Took a little over one hour to install with easy to follow instructions. Very satisfied with the finish and construction. After fine tuning, fits perfectly and very stable for kayak hauling. I shopped for months for a "naked" rack for my Ranger. After reading so many glowing reviews, I went with the Rhino over the other two major brands of roof racks.

To minimize the wind noise, make sure that the rubber strips are installed in the accessory slot on top of the crossbar and in the adjustment slots on the underside of the crossbars. If these strips arent installed, or if they dont cover the whole slot, the wind noise you experience will be much louder.

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.

Fits 2017+ Super Duty!
I had the vortex 2500 on my previous truck which I removed when I traded it in for the 2017 super duty. I knew all I needed was the foot kit to make the switch over to the new truck. But, for some reason Rhino rack didn’t have a kit for the new body super duty. They did however have kits for the 2015+ F150 which I knew would work because they share the same cab. My hunch was correct and the foot kit worked great.
The measurement for the spacing between the feet were a little off. The F150 calls for 169mm and 166mm between feet (front bar/rear bar). I found that to be a bit too narrow. I added about 5mm on each and it fit perfectly.

I was able to transfer my Rhino Rack bars and 2500 series platforms from my C-Max to my Mazda 5 with just changing the foot kit from one specific to the C-Max to the fixed point type for the Mazda 5. Some savings from buying a new setup entirely. I took the risk the bars' length might be an issue - turned out okay.
*** In changing the roof rack from one car to another, make sure to buy 4 total of the measuring strips for the roof racks (#RRM641). I didn't think to buy these until I put the rack on and heard whistling at high speed.

Very happy with the results. Rhino Rack would not confirm a fit for my 2019 Chevy Equinox LT. The installation instructions listed cutting the front measuring strips at 120 mm for the front crossbar for the Euro bar. This left my legs a good six inches too narrow to span my roof. After some tweaking I achieved a good sold fit. None of your competitors would claim they had a fit kit for the 2019 Equinox. Thanks to etrailer.com for recommending this product.

The rack was a great buy. Due to unforeseen circumstances I was not able to put it on until a few weeks ago. When I went to set it up I noticed 2 of the 4 rubber pads I was sent ended up being the wrong ones(all 4 of the same ones instead of 2 different sets for my car). The kit was the right number for my car, just somehow it had the wrong ones(probaby a screw up by the packagers). Ended up purchasing the 2 from rhino for a total cost still cheaper than the original msrp. Besides that the rack was a good buy and helps haul my kayaks. Eventually it will help haul a cargo basket loaded with camping supplies.

Review from a similar Rhino Rack DK in Roof Rack
This roof rack kit is a high-quality product that shows good design and application engineering. It is far sturdier than one I installed on my wife's car. When carrying a load of lumber at least equal to the rated capacity, there was no deflection of the cross rails and the unit never budged at highway speeds.
There were not many models that explicitly were said to fit a 2015 Ford C-Max (US version), so I bought these. The one-time assembly chore required time and attention, but the instructions are excellent. Read the instructions through several times before you begin (as is always a good practice). Once complete, I found the fit to be excellent. Removal and re-installation after the initial setup is simple. The very clever "torque wrench" supplied with the kit makes sure re-installations are tightened properly.
I took off one star because they are quite expensive, so value for money isn't excellent. If you want a cheap thing to use infrequently, these probably aren't what you want. That said, the units show no signs of deterioration after a year on the car, so you are buying quality. If you leave yours on the car between uses as I do, lubricate the locks and working hardware every six months or so.

I plan on using these rails for camping, kayaking, touring, and whatever else I comes my way that doesn't fit or shouldn't go inside the vehicle. I love that they're universal 'to a degree I'm guessing?' and it came with a 6pack of arrow stickers to place inside the wire windows for future alignment of the rails so you don't have to remeasure every time you take them off and want to put them back on.

With additional roof basket, we can now carry all our luggage and camping gear with a compact fuel efficient vehicle rather than a gas hog.

Hey there,
So the product was great, and installation was relatively easy. I have a concern with the pads I received in my box/ the placement of them. And I’m not sure who to contact?
I did not see on the DK sheet specific for my vehicle how to place the pads and which way the arrow should go. So I put them all on with the arrow facing out. The back pads look great but they front pads look odd, and not just the placement but also the pad itself. I’ll attach two pictures to show you the difference in them!

According to Rhino Rack, the pads sitting under the front foot pack should be rotated 180 degrees. Once thats done, they should sit correctly.

The etrailer staff was very helpful with getting me the right roof rack system.
The rack went together fast, easy and very simple to put on and off the car.
I like that there are locks so I do feel secure in using them.

This is the Rhino Rack I got for my 13 Murano. Thing is great. Just follow the directions and instructional video and its super easy to take on and off. Used it all summer but took it off for the winter. Mostly surfboards. Only concern I would have with the product but it is kind of the issue with all racks... If someone just took a hammer to the outer plastic where the locking mechanism is, it'll come right off. Right size hex key and boom its gone. Kit is great, fit perfectly not too much wear and tear after a year but we will see in another year!

I've had this roof rack for one year (2018 Honda Fit). I really love it. I drove literally across the country with my little car and back (over 5000 miles), so much tied on to it, it's what I needed. But equally wonderful is the customer service. I could not figure out how to get it on my car (I'm not a handy person), and the man on the phone talked me through every step and sent screen shots to my cell phone to help. I could not believe the customer service. I love my roof rack. I can't believe anyone would pay top dollar anywhere else when you can get this one, looks awesome, performs perfectly.

A year in and it works great. We’ve done three camping trips, hauled giant 6x6 posts for a fence, as well as drywall for home renovations. The roof rack has never shown any signs of complaint.
The only issue we’ve had is some additional road noise when driving. Honestly though, this is to be expected by how the unit anchors itself to the roof.
I would by this same model again if I needed to.

The crossbars look great on my 2019 Chevy Spark. The installation instructions were confusing but I found a video online that goes through the installation process. etrailer was extremely helpful in locating the proper parts and following up. They also pre-cut the strips for your specific car. It can be easily adjusted if the measurements are off because like I said, the directions are all over the place. You’re going to want to watch the video.

Fairly easy to install onto my 2017 Honda CR-V. The crossbars feel very sturdy and are securely attached to the vehicle. Took me about 30 minutes to get it installed and could be done even quicker if you get help from another person. The bars themselves are a little fat so my Thule ski rack has a super tight fit. There is very minimal wind noise, so I'll probably be getting a fairing for that. The instructions felt a bit jumbled but with just the measurements alone, you can install it with a bit of common sense.

I use this rack to carry my kayak on the roof of my Silverado extended cab when I am towing my small fifth wheel trailer. The rack is super strong, doesn't whistle, squeak or rattle. I initially followed the instructions on spacing, but later found that I could spread the racks apart a few inches more for stability under the long boat. The front rack slants forward a bit, but that works for the kayak shape anyway.
Mark your vehicle to relocate the racks after removal, the marks will be hidden by the doors when they are closed.

Ok..1 year later. Product is good. Serves the purpose. Kayak! I try not to remove it as often. Placed dot markers on inside door to line up easier. One thing, they do make lots of noise. Not the best aerodynamics. Sounds like a window is open. For the price though...can't complain. If I had to do it again , I would spend more.

Fit is good, sturdy rack, video instructions are great and easy to put on. Locks are not that great but will work for me. If someone really wanted to get to the bolt they could easily break the lock covers but then they would have to have the correct wrench. I would still recommend this as a great after market rack.

Overall great product. It does everything I hope it would do and more, minus a couple issues.
1: These leave a slight gap in the door seal allowing air to pass through on the occasional windy day. The noise from this can be a little bit abound.
2: The anti theft aspect of this product isn't great. I almost lost my racks to a thief, but they stripped the allen head due to not having the appropriate Allen key. They did manage to loosen the racks though. I got lucky.
For the money, these are great, but don't expect $1200 quality, or the quality of a professional installation bolted to the roof.

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.

Rack works fine like it should. There’s no rubber on top so I had to improvise a piece of foam.
One thing that bugs me is that the rubber bumpers that support on the roof of the car are a little too detachable and keep coming off when the rack is stored. Best way not to lose them is to keep a bag with all 4 pieces.
Overall great buy.

I searched to find a rack for our Prius C and had problems locating one to fit. When I happened on to this model, I saw the price and was pleased yet concerned. How could a good quality rack be priced so fairly? Since my options were limited or non existent with other brands, I decided to give it a try. Well, over a year later I can honestly say I have no regrets. The rack is still solidly on the car and has held up very well. Over 1 year and no problems!

I installed the rack on a 2018 F150 SuperCab. These racks are really nice medium load racks, well built and easy to install. If I followed the instructions the pads on the front cross bar would not sit down in the drip channels. I narrowed the front leg locations by 5mm per side or a total of 10mm or approximately .4". I sent the pics to Rhino Racks Engineering Department but have not heard back to see if they liked my fix. I like it! I recommend getting Rhino Racks approval before making these mods but that's what it took for mine to fit.

I have on this product for over a year now and after installing it on the roof of my car, I haven’t had to touch it. I’ve put this rack through the ringer in what I’ve at the times idiotically strapped to it, from full sheets of drywall, 200 pounds of siding and numerous other construction projects, this rack has come in clutch. I have also used this for more of what it’s designed for in carrying my surfboard, Wakeboard, and other sporting equipment never having to worry about it once. The only downside is that it does create more wind noise. But it’s not that noticeable. If this is a concern just upgrade to the aero bars!

Solid construction but the directions are worthless. Look online to get general idea of installation.
These components are 1 of 3 you need to order for a single roof rack. I worked with the very helpful Amanda of etrailer to get a single set, as they default to a set of two racks.

I purchased this rack for our 2015 Nissan Altima. We ordered the system with the square "Euro" bars. Package arrived quickly and in good condition. Instructions were generally good and easy to follow although the information on where to set the supports on the "Euro" bars was incorrect. I looked at pictures of installed systems to see where the supports needed to be on the roof and then manually moved them in place. It took a little adjusting back and forth with trial and error, but it ended up working fine. Since then the rack works well and seems quite solid. We are pleased with the quality and value for the cost.
