Question:

Hi! I have a 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara. It came with flush mount rails that run front to back on it already. We need a roof rack to fit it as well as 2 kayak carrying add-ons. Can you recommend which roof rack and compatible kayak carriers please? Thank you for your time!

Expert Reply:

The roof rack I recommend for your 2007 Grand Vitara is the thule AeroBlade roof rack. This roof rack features low-profile crossbars that are very quiet. The roof rack has a weight capacity of 165 lbs. To order this roof rack you will need part # TH7601B, part # TH7601B, and part # THKIT3024.

The kayak carrier I recommend is the Thule Stacker # TH830. This carrier lets you carry two kayaks on their side at the same time. This comes with one pair of ratcheting tie-downs, two straps, and buckle protectors. To make it easier to secure the tie-downs I recommend the Hood Loops # TH529. Just attach these to the tie-downs and you can close them inside the hatch and hood. I have attached a link to a product review video you can take a look at.
