Alti roof bars better than ThuLe?

[slippy]

Is it a waste of money buying thuLe?   Shall I just get Alti?

I just buy the cheapest I can find

I have Rhino bars on the van..solid.

Yeah 3 bars are £270 for Thule from halfords.  Might put it on hold and check vanguard prices for ulti.   All the vans around where I live have vanguard.  Is it worth having those end holder things on that stick up?

I will use mine for ladders,  big bags of garden waste and wood

Rhino was cheaper....only 2 bars needed on van with them.

I had rhinos on the old van nice and solid but got van guards on the new van and really happy with it especially the roller for loading makes it very easy and protects the van.

I've had Tule for years and they are good BUT definitely overpriced.

Used Aiko last year & very good build quality and reasonably priced.

Lol, 'them things that stick up' are called load stops. If you use an A frame ladder ther blinding as you can lift the back of the ladder over the back load stop so it can't slide backwards or forwards ?

They came supplied and fitted from the dealer, highly recommended though
