Features to know about

Avoid Awkward Overhang: Flush, Factory-Look Design

The flush design keeps the crossbars tight to the roofline, giving your setup a clean, factory look. Nothing sticks out past the edges, so everything looks neat and aerodynamic. The integrated crossbar and tower system gives a streamlined style that feels like part of the vehicle rather than an add-on.

Cut Down on Wind Noise: Aero-Style Bars with Rubber Strips

Long drives can get noisy with the wrong rack setup. These aero-style crossbars use push-down rubber strips in the top channels to help reduce wind noise and vibration while you’re driving. The smoother airflow means a quieter experience, so you can enjoy the ride without extra whistling or rattling overhead.

Take More Gear Wherever You Go: Works with Channel-Mount and Clamp-On Accessories

Whether it’s a weekend on the water or a cross-country trip, these bars are ready for it all. You can attach channel-mount accessories directly into the top channels or clamp around the bars for other gear. Most bike, watersport, snow, and cargo carriers fit right in, so you can swap between kayaks, skis, or a rooftop box with ease.

Strong Enough for Heavy Loads: Solid Aluminum Construction

The aluminum construction gives these bars strength without adding unnecessary weight. They have a weight capacity of 165 lbs (always observe your vehicle’s maximum roof load capacity). That means you can haul larger items confidently while knowing your rack is built to handle it for the long haul.

Secure Your Setup: Add SKS Lock Cores for Theft Deterrence

You can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) to help deter theft of both the rack and any channel-mount accessories. It’s an easy way to keep your gear secure when you park for lunch or leave it overnight at camp.

This roof rack has served me well over the year, currently has Thule snowboard rack/ will switch to a box in the future. it was pretty easy to install and is very sturdy.
by:
Kit was great! Service rep was excellent and really helped out!
by:
Seamless ordering and blazing fast delivery. What’s not to love?
by:
The SightClips with bases were very easy to use with my Yakima Ridgeline Roof Towers. When the towers are loosened and off of the vehicle the clips can come off, but it is really no big deal. I just take the off when not using the rack. When I put the the rack back on I only put the inner clips on before putting the rack on the roof. Then I add the outer clips and snug everything down. It is much easier that way.

Great products. Great service!

  • What is the Best Roof Rack for a 2024 Mitsubishi Outlander w/ No Roof Rails?
    Congrats on the new vehicle!

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2024 Kia Niro EV
    Hey William, for your 2024 Kia Niro EV I would recommend the flush bar roof rack from Yakima that consists of part numbers # Y53UV and # Y27AR. This will give you a really well made roof rack that is very quiet and looks OEM. If you prefer a roof rack that has more crossbar space the Jetstream rack part numbers # Y00428 # Y64AR and # Y27AR would be a great option as well. The bars of this rack attach to the top of the feet of the roof rack instead of in between them like on the flush...

  • Will Yakima FlushBar Crossbars Fit 2018 Infiniti QX30
    I have a similar roof rack for you but the FlushBar Crossbars # Y00456-2 do not fit the 2018 Infiniti QX30. What you can use instead is the Yakima SightLine FX Roof Rack for Flush Side Rails # Y53UV. These have the same flush design and use the JetStream bars so they are extremely quiet. You will also need the SightClip Fit Kit # Y35CR.

  • 2017 Hyundai Tucson Heavy Duty Roof Rack Recommendation
    Thank you for all of the info! I definitely have a roof rack solution so you can carry some ladders with your 2017 Hyundai Tucson but at this time (February 2022) Rhino-Rack doesn't have a roof rack fitment for your Tucson so we won't be able to install a roof rack using the Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbars # RB1250. As an alternative option I recommend going with the Yakima HD Crossbar roof rack system. The crossbars won't increase the weight capacity of the roof rack since your...
