Question:

I need help selecting the right roof rack and kayak carriers. I have a 2022 Kia Telluride with the flush mount rails and need to carry two kayaks. What do you recommend?

Expert Reply:

The roof rack I recommend for your 2022 Kia Telluride with flush mounted rails is the 2022 Kia Telluride Roof Rack by Thule. This kit consist of the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420, Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710601,and Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet # TH77JV. This rack will fit onto your Telluride's flush mount rails. The Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400 can be added to lock and secure the feet to the flush mount rails.

For carrying your two kayaks I like the Thule Compass Kayak and SUP Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # TH890000. This carrier is made in the USA and will carry 1-2 kayaks. The carrier has a tool free installation with the universal mounting hardware. This carrier includes 4 Tie-down straps with padded buckles to secure your kayaks to the carrier. The integrated StrapCatch keeps the straps centered and in place so your hands are free while you load. It also has 2 Pairs of bow/stern tie-downs to secure the kayaks to your vehicle.
