I have the Rhino Rack. In this picture it is mounted to the factory rails and has a very close fit to the roof and rails. It would flex and make some noise. I live in Utah and we get some snow and I don’t drive this everyday so the snow would build up under the rack. You can’t get anything in the gap to clean it out. Over a few freeze thaw cycles I had big chunks of ice under the rack that I couldn’t get out. I ended up putting Yakima HD cross bars on it that raised it 4”. Doesn’t look as good, but there is room to clear the snow, room for my awning not to touch the cab and the wind noise was greatly reduced.
