Question:

I have a set of 53inch Thule WingBar Evo bars. I just bought a 2022 Kia Niro. Will the Thule Evo Flush Rail Foot pack 710601 work with my Wingbars? And then I believe I will need the Fit Kit 186076 as well, correct?

Helpful Expert Reply:

While we do have the exact setup you need for mounting Thule WingBar Evo crossbars on your 2022 Kia Niro, we cannot confirm the fitment of 53-inch WingBar Evo crossbars on your 2022 Kia Niro with flush rails. This is because the engineered fitment designed by Thule involves the 47-inch WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711220 (black) or # TH711200 (silver). The reason why we or Thule cannot confirm whether the 53-inch crossbars will work on your vehicle is because all WingBar Evo crossbars have a finite bottom channel that does not run the entire length of the bars. It is possible that you do not have enough channel length on your 53-inch crossbars to mate with the feet.

With that being said, the Evo Flush Rail Feet # TH710601 (710601) and the Fit Kit # TH57JV (186076) are the correct parts for the WingBar Evo Crossbars for your vehicle.
