Features to know about

Keep Your Roofline Clean: Flush, Factory-Style Bars

The Yakima BaseLine FX system keeps everything looking tidy and intentional. The flush design means there’s no awkward bar overhang—just a clean, streamlined look that blends right in. It installs on your naked roof and gives that factory-style appearance while still giving you the full function of a true roof rack system.

Cut Down on Wind and Vibration: Aerodynamic Crossbars with Rubber Strips

Wind noise can be one of the biggest annoyances when you add bars to your roof. These aero-style crossbars are shaped to help reduce drag and noise as you drive. The push-down rubber strips in the top channels also cut vibration and keep things quieter, so you can enjoy the trip instead of listening to whistling from above.

Load Up for Any Adventure: Works with Channel-Mount and Clamp-On Accessories

Whether you’re heading out with bikes, kayaks, skis, or a cargo box, this rack is ready. The bars work with both channel-mount and clamp-on attachments, giving you the flexibility to use whatever gear setup you prefer. You can switch from summer water gear to winter snow gear just by swapping out attachments—no special tools or replacements needed.

Built Strong for Real Loads: Aluminum Construction, 165-lb Capacity

When it’s time to load up heavy camping gear or watercraft, you want bars you can count on. These are made from aluminum for strength without unnecessary weight, rated for up to 165 lbs (always check your vehicle’s roof capacity). The integrated crossbar and tower design keeps things solid under load while maintaining a low profile that looks just right.

Add Theft Deterrence When You’re Ready: Compatible with Yakima SKS Lock Cores

For those times you want extra peace of mind, the system is compatible with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately). Once added, they help guard both the rack and your channel-mount accessories from theft when your vehicle is parked at a trailhead or campsite.

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2015 GMC Terrain with Naked Roof
    We do have roof racks that fit your 2015 GMC Terrain that has a naked roof but the Malone kit you mentioned requires side rails that you don't have. So instead you'd want the Yakima roof rack part numbers # Y00425, # Y28TR, and # Y06146 which fits the naked roof of your vehicle. This rack gives you a set of aerodynamic shaped bars which will minimize wind noise and is very easy to install so we recommend it highly.

  • Recommended Roof Rack to Fit 2 Sets of the Thule Hullavator on a 2013 GMC Terrain
    Since the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier # TH898 requires about 31" of crossbar space, the 53" WingBar Evo bars # TH711400 that you referenced are not long enough to accommodate it. The Thule aero bars also have limited mounting space on the underside so you wouldn't be able to go with larger crossbars but we do have an alternative solution for longer crossbars. Yakima has their JetStream bars which are comparable to the WingBar Evo bars and they have a strip that runs the full length...

  • Will Old Thule Square Crossbars Work on a 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class
    I do have some roof rack options for a 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class but there are none from Thule currently. Furthermore, the old Thule square bars are discontinued so there is no way to reuse them on another vehicle. Instead, I recommend the Yakima JetStream Crossbar System composed of part # Y00425, part # Y28TR, and part # Y06146. This is an aero bar system which will provide the least wind noise and is compatible with the most amount of rooftop mounted accessories.
