Rhino roof rack wind noise above 45/ 50mph

Long story short- will rope spiral wrapped around the front 2 cross bars of the rack silence a lot of the wind noise?

Obviously I'll give it a go once I get some paracord & time to try it but it's bugging me 🤣 (im stuck at work & unable to try this) I can't be doing with taking the rack on & off at every chance I need to use it + it'll mark the roof & gutters I've just had resprayed

Sorry, rack = wind noise. You can try wrapping the tubes with bungee cords. That can help break up the air flow and alter the noise to more acceptable frequencies.

For anybody that's interested in resolving some noise from their rack

The rope did the trick !!! Bought some tidy 4mm paracord to make a neater job of it when it's not bucketing it down with rain
