Can I Fit the Rhino-Rack RTC Tracks # RTC16 on My 2022 Kia Telluride with Naked Roof?
Question:
I'd assume that if I read and followed the installation guidance, these would be able to be installed without damaging the vehicle. Are they known to not seal reliably? Or is it a matter of installer capability? I've removed vehicle headliners and interiors several times....short of sealing the required holes adequately, are there any other concerns?

If you are looking for a permanent solution to mount to your 2022 Kia Telluride, the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - Channel Mount - 63" Long # RTC16 is a viable solution. We have had neighbors who report that these tracks do flex to fit the contours of their roofs/camper shells. With that factor, you should be fine with mounting the tracks to your 2-inch channel. Also, since the # RTC16 measures 2 inches wide, they will fit the width.
To complete this system, I recommend the following setup:
- x2 Rhino-Rack Track Mount RLTF Legs for Factory Roof Rack Tracks - 3" Tall # RLTFMV
- RLTP Leg Adapters for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Track Mount # RRVA-FK1-2
- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 59" Long # RRVA150B-2 (black) or # RRVA150S-2 (silver)
With the Vortex Aero setup, you not only receive an extremely aerodynamic system that decreases wind noise; you also get the benefit of the wide range of compatibility of the crossbars with roof-rack accessories.
