What is Advantage to Thule Roof Track THTB60 over THTP54

Question

Question:

Hello, I am in the process of buying top tracks for my 1st Gen 4Runner. I was told that I should get the TP54 tracks, but then today read that for the fiberglass top the TB60 tracks are actually better. Can you provide information one way or the other on this? I have tried reaching out to Thule, but they are always incredibly slow to answer! Thanks!
