The flush design keeps the crossbars tight to the roofline, giving your setup a clean, from-the-factory appearance. The ends don’t stick out past the feet, so the rack blends right into your vehicle’s shape. It looks sleek and low-profile instead of bulky or tacked on.
When you drive with crossbars up top, wind noise can get old fast. The WingBar Edge crossbars are shaped to be aerodynamic and come with split rubber strips that fill in the top channels. This design helps cut down on whistling and vibration while you’re driving, so your highway trips sound much quieter and smoother.
This roof rack is ready for just about anything you want to haul—kayaks, canoes, paddleboards, bikes, skis, or a rooftop cargo box. The aero-style bars work with both channel-mount accessories and clamp-on attachments, so it’s easy to use the gear you already have or swap between setups without hassle.
Many racks make you cut rubber strips to fit your accessories in the tracks. With these bars you don’t have to. The top channels use split strips that let you slide mounts right in—no trimming required. Once your gear is in place, the strips close back around it to help keep out wind and water while cutting down on extra noise.
You can add Thule’s One-Key System locks (sold separately) to deter theft of both the rack and any channel-mounted accessories. It’s an easy upgrade that gives you peace of mind when leaving your setup parked overnight or at a trailhead.
Crossbar dimensions: 37-1/2" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall; top channel dimensions: 3/4" wide x 1/8" tall x 3/8" opening; weight capacity: 165 lbs; color: black; construction: aluminum; limited lifetime warranty.

How's it going neighbors Today we're gonna take a look at the Thule WingBar Evo and see how well it fits on our 2025 Toyota RAV4. Now, being a RAV4 owner, you know, having a cargo space is at a premium and having a roof rack is gonna allow you to get those bigger, bulkier items out for your adventure. So let's see how it fits and see how easy it is to install. First thing that stands out to me is the fact that you don't have any hangover with the crossbars, gives it a nice clean OEM look. Another thing that stands out really is how tall it sits up. So that's gonna give you more than enough space to work with just about any type of rooftop accessory, cargo baskets, rooftop bike carriers, you're gonna be good to go.
Another thing that's really cool if you decide to go with other Thule products, you can actually have a single key for all of your Thule items to just reduce how much is on your key ring. Now another thing that's really smooth about this is the fact that you can switch out your lock core for the same key system. So you'll just have that and it makes it super easy. Another also, you're gonna have access to your T channel slot, so you can use eye loop rings or any T channel accessory that's gonna give you a lot of flexibility. Now you're rated right at 165 for the crossbars, however you want to definitely stick to whatever Toyota suggests as far as your rooftop capacity.
Now, as far as installation, everything you need is right in the box and it's a pretty quick setup. Having fixed mounted points makes it super easy and I'm gonna show you how to get it done. Now this setup is pretty straightforward based on the fact that you have fixed mounting points. I went ahead and threw on the rear bar just to get an idea of the rundown. You're gonna start with a trim panel removal tool or a screwdriver if you're careful to remove this panel.
From here, you're gonna start adding your hardware. You're gonna have this two-sided bolt. One end is gonna be larger than the other, and that's gonna go into the threaded portion that's right here on top of your vehicle. I'm gonna start it with my fingers and I'm gonna use the included wrench to get this guy cinched down. And you can kind of see it's a little bit different as far as the style versus just like your regular wrench.
Now that I got it pretty hand tight, I'm gonna add our cover and each one of these guys are labeled on here. This one says FR for front right and it's gonna have the corresponding position for whichever base that you're putting on, and that just snaps right into place. So from here, we're gonna make sure that our external part with this little dip here is pointing to the outside. We're gonna just put that in position. And now we're gonna add on our bracket. Now our metal bracket is gonna point with the high point pointing towards you, and you want to observe which number for which part because that changes as well. And also keep in mind on the pad, that's gonna have its own independent number and it's in the guide so it'll tell you where to place it, but the process is the same on all of. This guy's gonna snap right into the rubber. We're gonna put this little plastic bracket in here and that's gonna snap into these holes. You can kind of see that right here. And now we're gonna add our screw here. And this is gonna use our Thule torque wrench. And the best thing about this torque wrench, it you don't have to worry about over tightening because it'll click to let you know when you have it in. You can already see we're getting stable. So now we're gonna put our edge end caps on along with our crossbar. And we're gonna continue with our super easy setup. We're gonna remove our end caps. These guys just pull right off and this is where you're gonna make your connection on your rooftop. But first, let's get it on our bar. This guy just slides right into position along this track by pushing down on this notch here. This plastic part slides right in here. And I'm gonna peel that back. And you can see this cutout right here where it comes into place that holds it in position. So now we're gonna go ahead, reinstall our little rubber here, and being aware of the position, we want the curve pointing towards the front. We're just gonna throw this guy up here and we're just gonna make a contact across and drop this guy right into position. And you may be a little long or short. The good thing is you can make that adjustment from here by pushing in and out. And this is actually locked down by the bolt that's on the top. So on this guy, we're gonna go ahead and hook this into position. And now we're gonna fasten it down, again using that same torque wrench to just make sure that we get listen for the click. And then it'll be locked in the position. So I'm gonna fasten this one down and I'll get this top bolt for our crossbar. Now, if we wanted to add metal lock cores to this, this would be the time to slide it in. But included are the plastic ones, and that works just fine depending on your situation. So we're just gonna slide this into position. And now you see we're good to go. We're ready for the road. Now again, this is Ed. Have a great day.

Kate was so easy and awesome to work with! Will order through your team again.
The Product was delivered in a very timely manner and was in flawless condition.
Excellent product. Doesn’t bring locks. It doesn’t say it anywhere
Great products with superior customer s ervice!
I know that the Fit Kit will work as described and appreciate how much advice I've received from the staff at e-trailer!
Delivered the order correctly the first time!
And fit the car perfectly. Excellent design and manufacturing! Rock Solid.
Excellent customer service, quick delivery, nice packaging, and perfect fit! Very satisfied. E-trailer is a great company.
I received all the required parts in excellent condition. The installation went very smoothly as planned on my 2022 Subaru WRX!
For XXX bucks I thought it would include the keys. Not plastic plugs. Instructions say it should have key. They even talk about how to store the key. My advice to anyone is buy it directly from dealer.
Initially I was worried that I good not get a good Roof Rack configuration to match my 2022 Kia Telluride. When I asked etrailer for some assistance on the configuration, Jon was quick to reply with an excellent solution. He definitely knew the products. Unfortunately, my initial shipment was damaged but Gwen and team quickly got me replacements in the mail. I have received and installed all components and couldn't be more satisfied.
One year in and it’s been great. Looks awesome, very functional, but I would recommend getting the windscreen as well. I didn’t want one, but if you have a sunroof and plan on using it, you’ll need the screen to avoid the noise. I haven’t maxed out the weight, but have put bikes, kayaks, and a roof box on with no issues. Would recommend 100%.
So far so good, I am still putting it on the car.
