Roof Rack Recommendation for 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport

Question:

I recently purchased a used 2012 Range Rover Sport. I would like to attached a roof rack to the top of the vehicle. It has two rubber strips running front to back on either side of the car. What roof rack options exist that attach directly to the roof of the car? Thanks!

We do offer a roof rack option for the 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport that has factory installed tracks that run front to back. Rhino-Rack offers their Sportz Crossbar rack system, part # RSPT508, which consists of 42-inch low-profile oval crossbars and 46-inch tracks that attach to your Rover Sport using hardware found under rubber trim on your roof. No drilling required!

A unique feature of this roof rack system is that its legs and crossbars can be quickly and easily removed or installed on your roof as single unit.

You'll want to check your Rover owner's manual for guidance about roof weight capacity before loading up any cargo. Be sure not to exceed its capacity.

If you're planning on adding rooftop accessory items like a bike rack you'll want to be sure to select one that will work with these oval/elliptical crossbars; the linked page will show you all such carriers that fit elliptical bars, such as the Swagman Fork Down # S64710.
