The H2 is bad enough with wind drag and body roll, and with just a tire on top it was even worse. Now that I have experienced this first hand, there is no way I am gonna move my tire up there.

Also, if you look at the above SUT roof rack it would be a lot of money just to put a tire up there.

I have the gobi roof rack for my SUV, and there's no windnoise. It's a GREAT setup !!
