| Review: | These pads are awesome and look great on my truck rack. I really like the fact that they do not have any print on them and are all black. | ||||

| Review: | I bought these pads to fit my 2010 Subura Outback. They fit great, however I wish the way you secured the pads to the bars were more substantial but definitely adequate. The padding is nice and I am using them to carrier a canoe that is 34 wide at the roof rack and these really do a nice job for that job. | ||||

| Review: | Honestly not a bad deal for $40, especially when its so hard to find a set of rack pads that will fit oversize bars like what I have on my truck. My only gripe is the foam doesnt seem to be as tough as outfitting foam. The good thing is if your foam wears out, you can chop up one of the super foam pool noodles or a cheap foam sleeping mat to make more padding. The covers are designed so you can remove and replace the foam if need be, which is nice. If you are hauling flat hulled boats like a playboat or a sup board, I doubt youd ever wear out the foam since the weight of the boat is distributed over a larger area. I however, have a boat with several edges that press down into the foam, so it creates thin spots over time. The covers themselves seem pretty bomber, the ballistic nylon is tough and thick. The only thing I did was pull the shock cords out of the ends and replace them with zip ties. Its my little extra added security against someone just unlacing the ends, unstrapping the velcro and taking off with my pads. Will it stop a determined thief, no but it will at least make them think twice. Will a thief worry about a set of foam pads, probably not but Ive seen foam coolers disappear before at a take-out. The only other thing that bugs me is my set did not come with the ACK.com logo screened on them like in the product pictures, they were just blank. Not a deal breaker, but I dont care a bit to rock the ACK logo on stuff I like. | ||||
