FAQ
Q: Will this fit any vehicle?
A: Not necessarily. Use the “Fit My Vehicle” tool on the manufacturer’s site. Roof type, mounting points, and vehicle load rating all matter.
Q: What determines the load rating?
A: Load ratings depend on the vehicle roof, type of mounting rails/points, and the specific rack system used.
Q: What causes wind noise or whistling on roof racks?
A: Incorrect installation (gaps, misaligned rubber strips, missing end caps) is a common cause. The Sportz Bar’s Twin Strip Technology helps reduce wind noise.
Q: Can I add accessories from other brands (e.g., bike racks, cargo boxes)?
A: The Sportz Bar is designed with Zwifloc and open accessory channels for many accessories. However, compatibility must be verified — some accessories may require adaptors.
