Recommended Roof Rack and Stand Up Paddleboard Carrier for 2018 Toyota Prius
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
Im trying to put together a good roof rack package to carry my paddleboard. Ive watched videos and read reviews on your site but just have one question for my prius 2018 fit. Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - RR67TR Yakima SUPDawg Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - 2 Boards - Y04075 It looks like these racks have enough room to carry the supdawg carrier but would it be better to get the other rhino rack style that has longer bars. Thanks so much for your help,

For your 2018 Toyota Prius, the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # RR67TR is an excellent option with the Yakima SUPDawg # Y04075. The carrier width is 40-1/8 inches so it is slightly wider than the rear crossbar but 2 inches shorter than the front. This is the route I would go as it will have less wind noise..
It isn't an issue and will give you a sleek look, but if you want crossbars longer than the carrier, you can instead use the # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK467 to give you much longer crossbars at 49 inches. I've attached a video to assist.
