For your 2022 Honda CR-V with a bare roof, the best roof rack is going to be from Thule, and there are a number of reasons for that. The rack's WingBar Evo crossbars are 53 inches long, which is important because they are longer than other options for your Honda so you have the most space possible to mount any accessory. The WingBars are also super quiet, easy to use, highly durable, and have a refined aesthetic so they look great on your CR-V. The complete rack is made up of the following parts:

- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Silver # TH711400 or Black # TH711420

- Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710501

- Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp Roof Rack Feet # TH145046

- (Optional) Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400

The WingBar Evo crossbars are so quiet not only because they are aerodynamic, but also because they have what are called WindDiffusers on top. These are rubber strips that direct air flow over the top and bottom of the crossbars to minimize wind noise that is present on other bars.

As for their durability, the WingBars are constructed from aluminum so they'll never rust, and are so durable that they come with a lifetime warranty to ensure you never have to worry about the bars wearing out over time - they won't. I have added a photo for you showing this rack installed on a CR-V so you can see what it will look like on yours.
