Will Rhino-Rack SQRS Rooftop Bike Carrier Fit 2015 Subaru Factory Crossbars

Question

Question:

Thanks for the outstanding product information and videos. In a previous answer I saw that the # RBC012 will fit crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide and 1-1/2 inches tall. I am wondering if you know the minimum size and if they would fit a bar profile that is 2-3/8 inches wide and 1 inch tall without using a filler shim.

I spoke with my contact at Rhino Rack and he confirmed that the QRS Rooftop Bike Carrier # RBC012 will only fit Rhino-Rack Aero and Sportz crossbars and Rola Sports crossbars. Instead I would recommend the Rhino-Rack MountainTrail Rooftop Bike Carrier # RBC035. This is also a fork-mount carrier and includes locks. Its sliding rear-wheel holder accommodates bikes of different lengths and the wheel tray accommodates wheels up to three inches in diameter.

I have included an install video of this bike carrier with your vehicle for you to check out.

According to Rhino Rack, if you were to go with the shorter bars, you'll only have 1-1/4 inch of leeway on each side which isn't enough in their opinion. I'd recommend going with the 71 inch bars so you'll be certain of a good fit. As…
