Fairing Recommendation for Thule Roof Rack on 2019 Subaru WRX STi
Question:
Hi, I have a 2019 Subaru Sit with the fixed mounted Thule Aerobars installed. Due to wind noise and whistling at higher speeds, Im looking to order a Thule fairing. My question is the 32inch or the 38? The 38inch looks to have the best coverage but not sure if the clamps will be to wide for the bar. The 32inch would obviously fit but not as good as coverage. Just want to make sure before I order.

The trick to picking out the correct wind fairing length for a roof rack is to base it off of the distance between the feet of the rack. Since the recommended Thule Wingbar roof rack part numbers # TH711220, # TH460R, and # THKIT3131 gave you a 53 inch long crossbar the 44 inch length part # TH82WV would be your best option most likely. But if the distance is less than 44 inches between the feet the 38 inch long fairing part # TH72WV would be what you'd need.
