Question:

Im interested in the rhino roof bags. I was wondering if they can be used well without a rhino rack. Also, I was wondering which size bags fit the 47x35 rhinorack well. I was thinking the 350L bag would best as I wasnt sure if the 500L would fit. Im planning to put this onto a toyota sienna and I have the Toyota crossbars already. I have a 150lb load limit to the roof so adding a 40-50lb rack will limit my options for roof storage for camping trips, but better than cramming everything inside. I think weight will likely be the limiting factor, over capacity, if I need the roof rack, unless there is a lighterweight rack option. I have considered a hard case but I think I prefer the versatility of a rack if not going with just a bag. Thank you for your time and expertise.

For the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB, I recommend using the:

-Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag # RRLB350.

The # RRLB500 is too wide and too long to fit on the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB.

Additionally, the Rhino-Rack Rooftop Cargo Bag # RRLB350 has a storage capacity of 350 liters or 12 cubic feet, and measures 47" long, 37-1/2" wide, and is 11-1/2" tall.
