Question:

What do you recommend for a roof rack on my 2019 Jeep Cherokee. It has the flush black and chrome side rails. Thanks.

We have a really nice selection of roof racks available that are confirmed to fit your 2019 Jeep Cherokee with the factory black and chrome side rails that run front to back. I recommend taking a look at the Yakima SkyLine FX # Y94YD. This is an excellent, aerodynamic roof rack with crossbars that will sit flush with your side rails for a sleek, OEM appearance. The tapered-wing shape on the bars dramatically reduce wind noise and vibration and they have a weight capacity of 165 pounds.

I have attached a short video demonstration on this system just so you can get a better idea as to how they install and look on a vehicle's roof.

Would that be enough for RTT??

To use for a roof top tent, I actually recommend going with a different style setup. The SkyLine FX crossbars offer a really sleek design, but for a tent you want those bars to extend past the mounting feet at least a little bit for support and vehicle clearance. If you have the 19 Cherokee I really like the Yakima JetStream System # Y67TB.
