Question:

I would like to permanently mount a roof rack onto my prius. I want aero bars that have overhang to the max. I need them to be low profile and black with a diffuser. Thule is nice but a bit out of my price range. I like Yakima and Inno. What can you guys come up with?

Expert Reply:

Since Thule and Yakima roof racks are premium options with similar pricing I recommend going with the Inno roof rack for your 2013 Toyota Prius since pricing is a factor for you. Even though Inno is at a lower price point it still has great quality that I know you'll be happy with:

51" and 54" Aero Crossbars - # INXB130-138
Through Feet - # INXS250
Fit Kit - # INK865
48" Fairing - # INA262

The nice thing about the Inno crossbars is that you can definitely upgrade them so that they are longer, but you also need to make sure that you aren't exceeding the width of your Prius. If you can measure the Prius from the outside point of one side mirror to the outside point on the opposite side mirror I can let you know what length you'll be able to use.
