Expert Reply:

What we've found with the Sportrack Semi-Custom roof racks like the part # SR1002 is that they don't always fit the best. Reason being they are designed to fit as many vehicles as possible which means they don't fit everything perfectly. The price makes these hard to not be tempted by, but your best option is a fully custom fit roof rack like the Inno part # INB127, # INSUT, and # INK745 otherwise you'll have to get somewhat creative to get the Sportrack to fit right.

Yes, the Rhino Rack roof racks like the rack that fits your Accord part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK184 will fit much better than the Sportrack roof rack you tried. Rhino Rack roof racks typically cost a bit less than the most expensive brands but they fit and perform just as well. This would be a huge step up over the Sportrack. This rack I mentioned is an aero bar roof rack. For a square bar roof rack instead you'd want the part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK184. This will cost a bit less than the aero bar option.
