The Rola Sport Series Roof Rack with REX Mounting System for Flush, Factory Side Rails part 59849 cross bars are 53-1/2" long. Based on the recommendations from other manufacturers, I recommend the 38" Rhino-Rack Fairing for Roof Racks part # RRRF2. This size will fit between the rails on the roof of your Sportage. The fairing will help to cut down on the wind noise however, I recommend to first make sure the rubber strips are completely pressed down into the channel of your cross bars because that can sometimes be the culprit of a whistling noise while going down the highway.
