The flush design of the Yakima BaseLine FX keeps the crossbars tight to the roofline for a clean, factory look. Nothing sticks out past the towers, so the rack blends in seamlessly and keeps a low profile. You get a solid platform that looks integrated rather than added on, all while maintaining that sleek, aerodynamic shape.
Driving with a roof rack doesn’t have to mean constant wind noise. The aerodynamic aluminum crossbars on this setup help reduce drag, while push-down rubber strips fill the top channels to cut down on whistling and vibration. The strips also stay in place when you mount accessories, sealing off the gaps for a smoother, quieter ride at highway speeds.
From weekend paddling trips to family road adventures, these bars are ready for all kinds of gear. The aero-style design works with both channel-mount and clamp-on accessories, so you can attach bike carriers, kayak J-cradles, ski racks, or cargo boxes without special adapters. That flexibility lets you load up for any season or activity using the gear you already own.
Built from tough aluminum, the BaseLine FX system provides sturdy support for your gear while keeping weight low. With a 165-lb capacity and a solid integrated tower design, it’s made to handle everything from kayaks to camping gear while respecting your vehicle’s roof load limit. The durable finish resists wear and stays looking sharp through years of use.
For extra peace of mind when your gear’s on the roof, the system is compatible with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately). Add them to deter theft of both the rack and channel-mounted accessories when you’re parked at a trailhead or campsite overnight.

Awesome! Thank you!
1 star. Extremely disappointed with it.
Protected the paint and held on tight.
Great quality and extremely durable. Still have them on my car a full year later.
Great service. Hally took good care of me. Letting me know when the order was processed, shipped, and delivered. When I had an issue, taken care of immediately. The product itself is as expected and with great Yakima quality.
Worked well with install of rack system. Protected vehicle finish during install and no issues after install. Recommend this product.
The roof rack is great. Solid.
Roof rack fits and works as advertised. Over the phone customer support for sales and install directions were very helpful and thorough. Geoff is an excellent brand ambassador who goes above and beyond to fulfill customer expectations. I will definitely be shopping at etrailer for my future vehicle needs. Well done!
One year later and everything works well. I had a problem early on where the rubber protection for one of the j clips from the base towers came off. Contacted etrailer and they sent me a whole new assembly direct from Yakima. Thanks for the prompt response and service!
