This setup is made for real hauling. With a weight capacity of 165 lbs, the Thule WingBar Evo gives you the backbone to carry your kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, or fully loaded cargo boxes for road trips and camping weekends. The aluminum construction keeps it strong without adding unnecessary bulk, so you can load up confidently whether you’re heading to the lake or across the country.
Long drives with roof gear can get noisy fast, but these aero-style crossbars tame that wind. Their shape and top channels are designed to cut down on whistling and vibration while you’re driving. The split rubber strips not only hold channel-mount accessories in place but also help reduce wind noise and drag for a smoother ride.
No matter what season it is or what gear you’re packing, this rack is ready to adapt. The crossbars work with both channel-mount and clamp-on accessories, so you can throw on watersport mounts in the summer or ski carriers in the winter without changing your setup. The top channels’ split strips let you slide accessories into place without trimming—just mount your gear and go.
Each system includes two 50" long bars, four Evo Clamp feet, and a custom fit kit for a secure hold on your roof. The aluminum construction resists corrosion and keeps weight down, while the design locks tight for stability mile after mile. You can add Thule One-Key System locks (sold separately) for theft deterrence when you park at a trailhead or campsite.

My purchase from etrailer.com was world class. And their service was superb. They are a 5-star organization. They are knowledgeable folks with experience in what they sell. They will quickly get you out of what would otherwise be a nasty, complex situation and make it look easy. You can trust this company. Put them to work for you. Note, I do not own stock in this company but wish I did.

I can see that you got the 52 inch Thule square bars. The square bars are known to whistle compared to the aerodynamic cross bars. I recommend the Thule AirScreen XT part # TH22WV to divert the wind up and over the cross bars to eliminate some of the wind noise.

Most of the time whistling occurs because the rubber strip is not covering the whole channel. You can find installation tips here in the attached expert answer. There will be some wind noise as with all brands of roof racks. Wind fairings greatly reduce that by adding an aero-dynamic ramp allowing the wind to flow over the roof rack. The Thule Wingbar Evo crossbars that you purchased are actually designed to act as a fairing so one would not be needed. You could still get one if you wanted to try it out. This one would be the best match for you: item # Y05018.

Review of Entire set: After a year of using this, it still works very well. Easy to take on and off your car and make slight adjustments if needed. Only maintaining is really just cleaning it which is simple enough. No issues with lockingunlocking with the keys. It has definitely helped saved space for my tiny Honda Civic.
