Comparing the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack 58 Inch and 65 Inch for a 2018 Volvo XC90

Question

Question:

I have a 2108 Volvo XC90. Will the 58” or 65” bars look better? I do not like the look of the bars coming out too far. Just using for a cargo box.

The Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG216 will look better while installed on your 2018 Volvo XC90 when compared to the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG217 because the crossbars will be 7" shorter overall and 3.5" shorter on each side. They will both however work just fine with a rooftop cargo box like the Malone Profile18B Rooftop Cargo Box part # MPG911. The only time you would want to go with the longer option is if you were using the roof rack to transport multiple water-sport accessories like kayaks.

Answer 6

The Malone #MPG216 AirFlow 2 roof rack is what I'd refer to as a budget-priced product. The quality is pretty decent, but they don't quite reach the Yakima/Thule pinnacle. If the roof rack will see daily or weekly use, it wouldn't be what…

Hey Joe, I have an easy roof rack solution for your 2024 Honda Odyssey with the Malone AirFLow2 part #MAL84AR but Rhino Rack doesn't have any fits for the raised rails of your 2024 Honda Odyssey which is why what you tried didn't fit.
