The best roof rack for a 2017 Lexus RX 350 with panoramic roof is the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbar part # TH711220, part # TH710601, and part # TH186044. The Thule WingBar is one of the most aerodynamic crossbars on the market therefore will provide the least amount of wind resistance (more mpgs) and drag (less noise). There won't be any fit issues with the panoramic roof either as the feet mount to the flush side rail. The longer crossbars when compared to factory roof racks will allow you to carry many more kayaks and bikes as well.

If you don't already have any bike or kayak carriers picked out, I recommend the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier part # TH849000 which can mount in the channels and the Thule UpRide Roof Bike Rack part # TH599000 because you don't have to take your wheel off to load the bike/bikes.

For your Hyundai Tucson with the panoramic sunroof I highly recommend the Yakima JetStream setup that consists of parts # Y00425, # Y00146, # Y06130, and # Y06178. There isn't a Thule system available for your particular vehicle.
