Recommended Fairing for Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack on 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee  

Question:

Does Wind Fairing TH8701 fit with these crossbars or should I get the 44 inch? I have a 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee with fixed bolts for crossbars.

Expert Reply:

The Thule # TH72WV AirScreen Fairing you mentioned is indeed a fit for the Thule AeroBlade Edge # TH7602-TH7602 crossbars you have. Since your crossbars are about 35-1/4 inches long, using the 38 inch fairing would give you about a 1-3/8 inch overhang past the end of each crossbar. If you went with the longer # TH82WV fairing, you'd extend past the end of the rack by 4-3/8 inches on either side, which I don't think would look quite right.

You can measure 1-3/8 and 4-3/8 past the edge of the rack on each side to get a better idea of how each fairing would sit, and to see what you feel would look better.
