Roof Rack Recommendation for Ski Carrier and 2015 Kia Optima with Panoramic Roof

Hi, I have a 2015 Kia Optima sedan with the panoramic sun roof. Im looking for a roof system that will allow me to carry 3-4 pairs of alpine skis. What would you suggest? I have no components currently

Expert Reply:
I did some checking and found that Yakima has roof racks that will fit your 2015 Kia Optima with the panoramic roof. You will need the following parts:
CoreBars # Y00422
BaseLine towers # Y28TR
BaseClips # Y06134
BaseClips # Y06121
Then you will be able to mount a ski carrier such as the SnowPack # TH7325.
