For a roof bike rack to use with the Rhino Rack Vortex Roof Rack you already have on your 2008 Dodge Sprinter, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack for Fat Bikes # RRRBC050-FB. This is a great wheel-mount carrier that will let you transport your bike with semi-fat tires. It can support tire widths of up to 5 inches and has a weight capacity of 45 pounds. Just keep in mind that the spacing between two of your crossbars needs to be between 21-5/8 inches and 39-3/4 inches for this to work properly. The carrier includes a lock system with an integrated cable lock to secure both the bike to the carrier and the carrier to the roof rack. All 3 locks are keyed alike.

I have attached a video review and the installation details for this carrier for you to check out.
