There are two sizes of widths. I bought the smaller size which is still perfect for my 9'3" longboard. I actually wish it was a tad shorter because on my subaru I can only fit one pad width wise on the rack. If it was about 1 inch shorter, I could fit two side by side and double my carrying capacity. As it is, I'm limited to about 3 boards total. But the pads themselves are strong sturdy and easy to put on.

Can't beat the price on these pads. Using on a Subaru Tribeca with factory aero rack. Just carried my cherished Dave Endress and vintage G&S longboard to Hatteras, 9+ hours and back. Snug, secure, noiseless. Seem durable, no compression so far. Also working great for my kayak.

This pad combo is excellent for the aero roof rack design. Stable, resilient, seems built to last. I purchased two pairs mounted side by side, so I can also use the padded rack for canoe carry. My son admired them...that is high praise.

After purchasing some other rack pads that claimed to fit my Xterra but did not, I did some research and settled on the XL DaKine Aero Rack Pads. They fit my Xterra bars and are great quality to support my paddle board.

Very pleased with them. Heavy duty materials. Fit the Subaru Outback side-to-side roof rack bars perfectly. Hauling two 16 foot kayaks tied on deck down on two sets of 14" pads. Look like they will last.

Only thing I would consider is that if you don't have bars wider than 4 inches, I wouldn't buy the xl's. They are pretty wide. I have 3" wide bars and they are big on them.
