+1. Your rack top will also be almost useless when you have both panniers mounted (granted, if you have both panniers you can fit a lot inside, so less need for rack space).

Rack width is 9.3" and Topeak MTX Trunk bag EXP is 8.3" in width. So should have enough room for that model. I do like the Ortlieb trunk bag more for weather. That bag comes with a pannier bar that I don't need obviously. But I don't know if Ortlieb's quick release base plate can be mounted without it. Maybe somebody can enlighten me with that setup.

Before and after lowering pics. This is as low as it will go. More room for trunk bags too.
Heel clearance is good too.
