Since wind noise is a priority you will definitely want aero shaped crossbars for the roof rack you install on your 2018 Honda CR-V. We have a few options but the Yakima JetStream Kit part numbers # Y00425, # Y28TR, # Y06188, and # Y06189 would be the winner as it has the highest capacity of 165 lbs, has aero shaped bars, and has the shortest bars which also helps with wind noise. These bars are 50 inches in length.
