SportRack Brand Ski Carrier Compatibility With Crossbars on 2014 Subaru Forester

Question:

Will these crossbars be able to accommodate the ski rack made by Sportrack? I believe they have universal mounts. The mounts look like the ones in the attached picture.

Thank you for providing a photo of the ski rack attachment clamps you are concerned with matching to a roof rack.

The Curt roof rack system you referenced, their part # C18118, is indeed a correct fit for your 2014 Subaru Forester with factory-installed raised side rails. This rack uses sleek aero-style crossbars that are fully compatible with any of the SportRack ski carriers we offer. All SportRack ski carriers can be seen on the link at right along with a roof rack installation video.

Each of these carriers will also directly fit most factory-installed roof rack crossbars.
