The crossbar I recommend is the Thule AeroBlade # THARB53 because its extremely quiet and has integrated T-slots which make it easy to slide T-track accessories onto the bars.
The roof mounted railing foot pack # TH450R (sold separately) are easily installed or removed with the integrated tool that will also act as a cover.
The weight capacity of the roof rack is 165 pounds but it's always a good idea to check your owners manual to see the maximum roof weight capacity. Therefore, go by the lowest rated number and that will be your maximum weight capacity.
If you prefer a more low profile, aerodynamic look, the Thule AeroBlade Edge roof rack # TH7501-TH7502 would be a solid choice. It has a weight capacity of 165 pounds.
To secure the roof rack to the side rails on the top of your vehicle, I recommend the Thule One-Key Lock System, part # TH544.
I included a couple helpful articles and video review for you to view.
