THULE RACKS 10% OFF SALE GOING ON NOW!
+ free shipping on orders of $99 & over (within continental US)
Also available in the classic Thule 430 Tracker II version.
This exclusive design offers discerning customers premium styling and sleek good looks! The complete Thule 430R Rapid Tracker II roof rack system works the same as the regular Thule 430 Tracker II system but uses the premium looking, aerodynamic Thule Rapid Aero bars instead of square load bars. The Thule 430R Rapid Tracker is a multi-purpose base rack solution for cars, minivans, SUV's and pickup truck cabs with factory racks and track systems. Super easy to install, the TK Tracker Kits snap into the factory rack tracks, replacing the weak and/or incompatible factory rack setup. The 430R Rapid Tracker II Feet then simply attach to the TK Tracker kits. Once the Tracker Kit is installed, the Tracker Foot removes with the push of a button.
This system also works with all Thule permanently installed Tracks and certain vehicles with pre-installed fix-point attachments provided by the vehicle manufacturer. Also permanently mounts to Thule TK14 Tracker Kit (for metal surfaces) & Thule TK13 Tracker Kit (for fiberglass surfaces) for fiberglass truck cap, camper shell or tonneau cover etc & sheet metal roofs that have no factory rack already. Set of four TKCAP Covers also included for providing a finished look when Thule 430R Rapid Tracker roofrack system is removed and only TK Tracker Kits are left on rooftop (Covers simply snap onto TK Tracker Kits). We highly recommend a four pack of Thule Locks (not included; see accessory add-ons below) to lock the rack to vehicle.
The Thule 430R Rapid Tracker complete roof rack system includes all 3 components that are necessary for installing a general-purpose base rack on your vehicle's roof top, providing the platform that will allow you to then connect roof mount gear carriers that carry your gear and equipment:
- Four (4) 430R Rapid Tracker II Feet.
- Four (4) Thule TK Tracker Kits (specific to your vehicle; see ordering notes below).
- Two (2) Thule Rapid Aero Aluminum Load bars (bar end caps included).
- Also includes (4) TKCAP Covers.
The Thule 430R Rapid Tracker Foot Pack uses the exact same existing TK Tracker Kits that work with the classic 430 Tracker II Foot Pack. Thule Rapid Aero aluminum load bars are offered in four sizes for optimal fit on any vehicle (Thule Racks recommended load bar length will be provided unless otherwise specified when adding system to your cart). Customize rack by connecting Thule gear carriers to Rapid Aero load bars. (Thule Xadapt kits required for connecting certain carriers; see accessory add-ons below). Base rack can be locked in place using four-pack of Thule's One Key System lock cylinders (not included; see accessory add-ons below.) No tools required for assembly. Easy-to-follow instructions included. Thule Racks Lifetime Warranty!
Virtually all Thule roof mount gear carriers attach directly to the Thule 430R Rapid Tracker load bars or using the Thule Xadapt Kit adapters. Please click the link below to view compatibility specifications of the most popular Thule sports gear carriers when used on Thule Rapid Aero bars:

Perfect Fit, Economical, Simple and looks great too!
this Thule 430R Review by Adam D. (NJ)
vehicle year/make/model: 2006 Porsche Cayenne
item(s) transported: Thule Cargo Box for all the vacation necessities
Aftermarket roof racks that fit into the factory tracks of my Porsche Cayenne are hard to find. Porsche wants many $$$ for this (upwards of $1,500 with cross bars) and was a non-starter. The Thule 430R Rapid Tracker Car Rack was PERFECT! Easy to install, very secure, and looks good too! The feet went right into my factory tracks. I mounted my Thule box on top and was able to stow away vacation stuff for 5 of us with no noise, movement, etc. The folks at ORS Racks Direct were great in helping me figure out the right package for my vehicle, for my wallet and for my taste in looks. I can't say enough and would recommend ORS and the Thule system to anyone.
Clean, Tight, Modern
this Thule 430R Review by Flip
vehicle year/make/model: 2005 Toyota Pathfinder
item(s) transported: Bikes
I have the Thule 430 Rapid Tracker system on my Pathfinder and a pair of Thule Sidearm bike racks attached to the crossbars and the whole set up looks awesome!! The way that the feet integrate into the tracks on the roof and the way that the Sidearms integrate into the crossbars results in a super clean, super tight and modern look. So much better than the black square bars with clamp-around carriers. One thing, just make sure you replace part of the rubber strip into the empty parts of the track of the crossbars. I didn’t bother when I first put them on and consequently the rack made noise, but it went away when I put the rubber strip back in. I just cut the strip to fit in between my bike carriers.
Innovative and Elegant Design
this Thule 430R Review by Hayes R. Watson
vehicle year/make/model: 2007 Infiniti QX56
item(s) transported: kayak
Thule has designed an innovative and elegant rack system that becomes one with the vehicle like no other system out there. In fact, you would think that the system was factory installed. My kayak looks so good on this rack I sometimes hate to take it off when I get to the water (just kidding). Phenomenal and I highly recommend to others.
