When you’re loading up kayaks, canoes, or a cargo box for a long trip, you want bars that won’t flex or shift under weight. The Thule WingBar Evo system includes two 50" aluminum crossbars built for real strength. With a 165-lb weight capacity, these bars hold steady while keeping weight light on your roof. The solid build gives you confidence when the road gets long and the load gets heavy.
Wind noise can get old fast on the highway. The WingBar Evo’s aero-style shape and built-in split rubber strips help cut down that whistling and vibration. The strips fill in the top channels to smooth airflow while sealing out dirt and weather. You get a quieter ride and less drag without having to fiddle with extra add-ons or noise fix kits.
Whether it’s kayaks in summer or skis in winter, this setup handles it all. The top channels work great with channel-mount accessories, and the bar design also fits clamp-on carriers. That means you can use your favorite bike racks, paddle holders, or cargo baskets without worrying about compatibility. Switching between setups is quick and easy so you can spend more time on the road or water.
Other racks make you cut the rubber strip to fit accessories into the channels. Thule’s split strip design solves that headache. Just slide your mount into place—the strip parts around it and then closes back up to keep things sealed and tidy. It keeps installation clean and helps maintain that aerodynamic performance trip after trip.
When you stop at a trailhead or overnight spot, it’s smart to secure your gear. The WingBar Evo is ready for Thule One-Key System locks (sold separately), so you can lock both the rack and any channel-mounted accessories with one key set. It’s an easy way to keep everything safe while you’re off exploring.

I feel that the service I've received from e-trailer was superb. They made excellent suggestions and I'm looking forward to getting the new rack installed ... again, with their video help!!
50 " bars are perfect for my 2024 Outback Wilderness. Super Stout and ready for my Yakima Road Warrior.
fit perfectly
Fast shipping, no shipping damage, and great service. Will be using etrailer in the future if I need anymore gear for my vehicle.
The WingBar Evo Crossbars are exactly as pictured on the etrailer website. They're strong, well made, install quickly, and don't seem to create much noise at highway speeds. Highly recommended!
Received delivery well in advance of original expectations. Product was precisely what I needed, fit exactly as described and extremely easy to install. Key was to research manufacturers guidance on what parts are required than order them from etrailer.
been on the car for a year, kayaks, surfboards, boxes, awnings. Never had an issue.
Just installed these on my 2018 Lexus RX. Everyone at etrailer was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process, confirming fits and offering suggestions as necessary. My new rack fits great and can't wait to use it.
Still working great after 1 year!
Had for one year. Works perfectly. No issues at all. Easy to install. Works great with my Thule Hullavator!
eTrailer never fails to deliver the best products, with the best prices, the fastest delivery and above all the BEST customer service around. I ordered these cross bars to replace the existing ones I have. I wanted ones shorter (in length) than the ones that I originally bought. Order arrived in a few days. Installation was a snap, and of course, they look great!
Purchased complete Thule Wingbar system including locks for a 2023 Hyundai Kona. Use to carry canoe and miscellaneous things. Carried canoe for first time and the system was bomb-proof. Through etrailer everything was delivered on time and complete.
The rubber guides in the Evo bars came out within months of beginning to use it. Once the seal popped out the bars whistle annoyingly.
Alex and etrailer are great to work with. My original order was misplaced by the shipping company. I needed the cross bars for a trip and Alex overnighted an extra pair so that I had what I needed. Alex came through when I needed his help. Great customer service.
I purchase these along w the Thule Evo Fixpoint feet & Thule mounting points. Took less than an hour to put together & it was pretty simple. I don’t notice any whistling noises at all so that’s great. Looks super awesome! If you’re thinking of getting a roof rack definitely go with the Thule, looks low profile and sleek.
Got exactly what I needed! Perfect fit on the 2024 Q7.
Work great. The rubber pieces will start to pop up at times. I will hear the bars whistling so I just reset them and good to go. Overall the bars are quiet. We use a Thule cargo box on top and it works great for traveling.
The fixed point feet fit perfectly on the EVO cross bar, but typical of Thule the channel for the feet kept them 2” to far apart. Thule wants you to always buy complete new sets of everything. I extended the channel by 1” on each side. Everything fit perfectly.
One of the rubber strips came off somehow. I just used these bars for the second time.
Great customer service and product selection. Fast shipping, item arrived in great shape. I purchased a trailer from etrailer over 10 years ago, I always like to return and purchase more items. Highly recommended.
QUALITY Crossbars! Aerodynamic, tested at 70mph on the highway with little to no noise disturbance! SOLID bars if installed correctly. Although there were instructions provided, they were a bit vague. Hop on YouTube, and you will find plenty to reference from! Most of it is self explanatory, but it’s always good having tips and tricks helping you through your particular install! A++
This is my first Thule product but not my last. etrailer was great to deal with the videos on how to install the product were so helpful. Between etrailer's help and all the reviews that other people had purchased and posted made this a very pleasant purchase and install. I highly recommend etrailer and the complete Thule WingBar system including the keylocks that worked perfectly.
I'm using these Thule Evo Fixpoint Feet #710701 in conjunction with the FitKit #87003 to mount my DropRack XL to the rooftop of my 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Eventually I'll get a Thule Rooftop Cargo Box to transport our RV camping supplies for which we don't have enough room in the Jeep or our Aliner RV camper. For now, I'm also using the setup to transport 4' x 8' plywood sheets for a DIY home project. This is the perfect solution for a multi-use application that'll enable us to accomplish more projects around the house as well as on the road.
Thule custom rack feet are always rock solid. Another great set.
