Question:

Using the Evo Raised Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Factory Raised Rails and the EVO Wingbar 53 inch doesnt seem to work. It appears that there is no way to install to a Forester 2019 touring maybe a different model? The tourings roof rails angle inward towards the back of the vehicle and the wingbar channel is about an inch too short to tighten anywhere past the front door it will pop off.

We confirmed with Thule that the Wingbar Evo roof rack part numbers # TH711220 and # TH710401 fits your 2019 Subaru Forester with raised rails and have had the chance to install the rack on a similar 2019 Forester just like yours so we were able to verify the fit as well. I attached a picture of the rack installed as well as a review video of the install process as well.

This rack uses 47 inch long bars. A 53 inch bar like you mentioned would be too long.
