Specs:
TheThule WingBar Evo crossbars let you quickly and easily build a quiet, aerodynamic custom roof rack for your vehicle. These high-end bars look great on any vehicle, and they are perfect for those who want a quiet roof rack that can carry plenty of gear. The bars have dual rubber strips in the T-slots and pivoting endcaps that allow you to easily mount carriers and accessories. Each bar extends past the feet to maximize carrying capacity. The bars are constructed of aluminum with internal BoxBeam structures that make them extremely durable yet lightweight. The WingBars require a Thule foot pack (sold separately) to mount the rack to your roof. Some vehicles - such as those with a naked roof - may also require a vehicle-specific fit kit (sold separately).
Aerodynamic TrailEdge Design with WindDiffuser Strips
The WingBar's tapered TrailEdge shape helps reduce wind drag by separating the airflow over and under the bars so you won't see a reduction in your vehicle's gas mileage. This also dramatically reduces wind noise and vibration - even at highway speeds - and eliminates the need to add a fairing to your roof rack.
The rubber WindDiffuser strips in the T-slots have V-shaped ridges that direct air over the tops of the bars. This reduction in wind drag also helps maintain fuel efficiency and significantly reduces wind noise.
Channel-Mounted and Clamp-On Accessories
WingBar Evo crossbars have built-in T-slots with rubber strips that simply press into place. This makes them easier to install when compared with strips that have to be threaded into the channel from the end of the bar. The dual-strip design also makes accessories easier to install in the T-slots when compared with strips that have to be trimmed. Simply lift the SwingBlade endcaps open, slide your gear into the channel, and close the endcaps. These rubber strips also seal the gaps left by your accessories so that water and dirt don't get into the T-slots.
You can also attach most universal, clamp-on accessories and carriers to the bars.
Strong, Durable Construction
The WingBar Evo crossbars are made of anodized aluminum with internal BoxBeam structures. These structures strengthen the bars without significantly increasing their weight. Additionally, because the bars are aluminum, they won't rust or corrode so you can leave them on your roof year-round.
Hassle-Free Installation
Installation of the WingBar Evo crossbars is quick and easy, and you don't have to do any drilling or vehicle modification. The bars have bottom channels that accommodate your Thule feet. SmartSlide sliding scales in the bottom channels let you place the feet in the proper location using the vehicle-specific measurements provided in your fit kit manual. Simply slide each scale to the measurement indicated in the fit kit manual, then slide the foot into the channel until it rests against the scale.
For applications that don't require specific measurements provided in a fit kit manual - such as a raised rail - you can center the rack after you place it on your vehicle using a tape measure. Then slide the scales against the feet to fill in the gaps in the channel.
Insert the included rubber filler strips into each channel between the outer edges of the feet and the ends of the bars, and trim the excess. These rubber strips, coupled with the sliding scales, help to keep dirt and water out of the bottom channels and help to reduce whistling.
To complete installation on your roof simply tighten a single screw inside each foot using the torque tool included with the foot pack. This single attachment point enables you to secure the crossbar to the foot and the foot to your roof simultaneously.

Can’t wait to load it up with a couple of boards!
Two issue- 1) my old Hull-a-ports don't fit perfectly on them. Had to do a little jerry rigging. It works, no problems but it would have been nice to know.
2) without any attachment on these bars, at speeds >40 MPH (70 KPH) These things cause the most God awful scream that almost precludes opening the windows they are so loud.
Great looking product. Fits very well on the car and the bars are actually pretty quiet. It is somewhat a pain to mount and dismount so plan on 30-45 minutes at least. In my opinion, if you put them on leave them there for the season as it is not very friendly to mount or dismount.
Put them on a Nissan Rogue and they work great. Make sure to install the underside channel plugs which come with the bars or they will whistle.
I would give the WingBar Evos 5 stars wish more accessories were available.
Brittany was awesome ! Very helpful in my decision making & her knowledge was a tremendous help! Speedy delivery and awesome product in Thule ! My roof racks are AWESOME!!!!
By no fault of their own I'm sure, a cap was missing in the box. They were awesome!!! Sent me the missing part right away.
Now I'm ready to show off my new hobby this summer.
Thank you!!!
What a great experience! I spoke or corresponded several times with representatives about technical or ordering issues, and they were uniformly very helpful and courteous. They matched a small difference in price from another vendor and were really helpful in making the decision about what to buy. The Thule items are really high quality and, in spite of instructions that would make Ikea embarrassed, weren't difficult to assemble and install. (I recommend checking for relevant videos online.) I give etrailer.com and the parts an unqualified 5-star rating. One of my best online experiences ever.
Vague instructions prolonged the instal lation.

The aerodynamic bar is quiet, a plus to leaving it on the car most of the time??
Love the way it looks
My order was processed very quickly and shipped in a timely manner. Everything arrived in great shape. I am pairing my Thule crossbar kit with a Thule Force XT cargo box to increase my capacity for hauling camping gear for a family of 4 in a 2019 Subaru Forester. The installation and product review videos on your website are very helpful.
These crossbars were perfect for my 2019 Honda CRV! They do make a slight high pitched whistle at high speeds when the sunroof is open, but it’s certainly tolerable and understandable. They are strong and sturdy and haven’t faded a bit after a year of use.
Really nice quality items, go together easily. My only beef is the fit of this model for the 2016 RAV4. As the front of the factory bars curve outwards, you have to slide the front wingbar backwards quite a bit to allow it to mount. It doesn't seem to be a problem for my use (kayak carrier), but it's worth noting.
Holding up great after a year of use. Easy install, and supportive for a full Thule case on top of them.
Product received quickly and well packaged. Not cheap but you do get what you pay for for good automotive accessories. Looks as if they will hold up over time and weather. Carrier holds $1,300 worth of equipment so need to have a good support unlike the original rack!
Great quality, simple to assemble, and looks good on my 2011 Honda Fit Sport.

I love my Thule roof rack. Keep up the good work!
works great on my Volvo with the Thule crossbar clamps.
Great service! Korren called me back right away and I had what I ordered in less than a week.
No parts were missing in the order and the rack was on the car in less than two hours.
Bad choice on my part. I should have ordered the Crossroad Feet for raised railing. These work, just mount rather high. I would like to exchange them.
Always great service from etrailer. The Thule product was exactly as ordered, and shipped quickly as promised.
This just fitting right to my Kia Sportage 2020 black finish looks awesome, love it so much
Rails look great on the car, car carrier is amazing. Shipping was fast once the items were in stock, and delivery was perfect. The reviews and how-to videos on the site were invaluable.
Crossbars look great!!
Crossbars seem to be very high quality.
