Expert Reply:

The style of roof rack you are looking for is referred to as a "flush bar" rack which means the bars of the rack do not extend out past the feet of it. The flush bar style of rack that fits your 2019 Subaru Outback Touring with flush rails is the Thule WingBar Edge Crossbars # TH96FE, Edge Flush Rail Feet # TH89SC, and Fit Kit # TH186047.

Thule roof racks are overall the best you can get. They are very well made, easy to install, and also are built to last.

I have Thule bars, can I just get the towers and adapters for my Outback touring? If so part numbers and prices please.

We can absolutely do this. I would need to know what model year Outback you have though, along with the specific model Thule bars you have.

Hello and good day, I have the same question as listed above. Are there any new options for roof bars for my 2017 Outback Touring with the flush rails. I have the same car as pictured above and as mentioned there are very few confirmable options that will properly attach to my car. Any information you can provide would be helpful. If the Thule is the only option, what would the price be for the complete setup? Thanks in advance! Chris R.
