Kizashi Club

Getting cross bars for the Kiz, does anyone have a ski rack they recommend? Looking at holding at least 4 pairs of skis.

Found this on Amazon:


It's got raving review, and it's not too expensive for a roof rack.

Thanks for the reply, was curious if anyone had one on the factory bars and how they fit.

Yes, I have the Suzuki accessory rack. I have not used them for skis, but I do use it for a bike module.
The roof racks are excellent. The best part is that the Kizashi was actually designed with roof racks in mind therefore have built-in mount bases in the roof.
It would be wise to take advantage of this.

I have written a rather lengthy review on the rack and other accessories in a post called "Suzuki Accessories Initial Impressions".

I can answer your additional questions regarding the roof rack.

Wait, are you talking about the Suzuki roof rack or the Suzuki ski mounts?
I don't have the ski mounts.

I can only comment on the roof racks on which the ski mounts attach to.

You might need to buy the same brand ski mount as the roof cross bar brand?

Thule would be worth a look.

I was referring to the rack that attaches to the cross bars, and which brands people may be using and their impressions of them. Thule has some racks, but I rather not spend more then $100 on a rack. Thanks!

So you've already got the cross bars?

Yup, they will be delivered tomorrow, so planning my purchase

If I were you, I would get the Suzuki accessory ski carrier (Mont Blanc).
It's made by Mont Blanc so you can probably find it in other places too. (I have seen identical bike modules to the one sold for our cars via Suzuki on other non Suzuki cars.)
Given how well the Mont Blanc bike module mounted onto the Suzuki roof racks, the ski carrier should be an excellent fit as well.
It is however, over $100 on this site, which I found to be the best prices on Suzuki accessories. It's where I got my bike module and hood deflector.
