Question:

I am torn between buying the Thule TH33ZR and the Rhino Rack RL210S. I cant seem to find the TH33ZR on the Thule site at all. Is there a reason? I dont want to get them if they are discontinued like the old 8 inch feet or if they are not supported at least for a couple of years.

Expert Reply:

I called the Thule manufacturer, and they said the reason why the Thule Rapid Gutter Feet for Thule Crossbars - Rain Gutters - 8 Inches # TH33ZR is unavailable is because retailers are still waiting for more to be produced from the factories.

With that being said, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs - Gutter Mount - 8-3/10 Inches # RL210S2 because they are readily available to order from the manufacturer and will still get the job done with your foot height needs. In addition to the legs, you will need Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 and a optional all-metal locks # RRVA-LEC4.
