Helpful Expert Reply:

Any roof rack is going to add some noise, especially when on the highway. However, the best option is to go with aero bars which are typically low-profile and have reduced noise and vibration.

If your 2018 Mercedes GLE is a coupe with naked roof then I recommend going with Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 53" Long - Qty 2 # TH711420 along with the necessary Feet # TH460R and Fit Kit # THKIT3152.

If your 2018 is a wagon with factory roof rails then I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack - Raised, Factory Side Rails - Aluminum - Silver # JA8343. This is also a low-profile flush roof rack which does not extend past the roof and has low wind drag. Both roof racks offer the standard T-slot channel on top of the crossbars, which allows for channel-mounted accessories to be easily installed or removed.
