In order to mount the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack # RR42115BF on top of your 2021 Kia Telluride roof rails, you will first need a crossbar setup.

I recommend going with the Thule Aero Crossbars; these have the common T-slot track to allow for easy installation of channel-mounted accessories. They are also low-profile and aerodynamic so they will have reduced noise and vibration compared to other style crossbars. The complete kit is as follows: Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars 53" # TH711420 for black (or # TH711400 for silver), Feet Kit # TH710601, and Fit Kit # TH77JV. Then you can install the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR42115BF. I attached a couple demonstration videos for you.

Going with a longer crossbar does give you more space to mount roof accessories and carriers but the longer bars do tend to get in the way a little more and create a little more wind noise. So really it comes down to considering how many things you…

The only solution to reducing wind noise on a roof rack, like your Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars 54" #RRVA137B-2, is to install a wind fairing / deflector. To determine which size to get, measure the usable crossbar space between the…
