Look at you go! You found the EXACT roof rack that I was going to recommend to you! Indeed, the JetStream Crossbars # Y00425 with the Ridgeline Towers # Y00145 and the RidgeClip Fit Kit # Y06017 will fit nicely on your 2018 Hyundai Tucson SEL! Now, let's find you the best Yakima Basket for your particular car.

I've always been a big fan of the Yakima OffGrid # Y07139. It's my favorite of the Yakima roof baskets for a couple different reasons. First, it's a good looking basket! Second, I love how it mounts to the rails. It's super easy to install as it just wraps around the bars very easily. So, if you're one of those people who just like to keep it on your roof even when not in use, it looks good and if you like to keep it on your roof only when you're using it, it takes a minute to take off. Third, it has the options for locks.

With the basket being so easy to remove, I like to have the peace of mind knowing it's locked onto the roof. Here's a pack of 8 locking cores # Y07208. The OffGrid only takes 4 of them, but use the other 4 for your Ridgeline Towers so everything is locked on your roof. They all use the same key so no need to fiddle through multiple keys to unlock your basket and bars!

Fourth, I like how it comes with an accessory bar # Y07354 to divide your cargo. Fifth, you can choose to add a 22" extension Y07109 if you decided you needed more room up on your roof. Therefore, you're not stuck with the size you originally went with. Lastly, there's a Yakima cargo net # Y07081 that works great with the OffGrid!
