Recommended Roof Rack and Capacity for a 2021 Honda CR-V w/ a Naked Roof  

Question:

What is the load rating or max weight for this roof system? I have a Thule Force XT large roof box, used mainly on another vehicle. It weighs 40lb and can carry another 160lb. Im wondering if this Thule system would work for that roof box on a 2021 CR-V, currently naked top. Would that be able to fit on my CR-V with this? The problem with Hondas OEM roof rack is it holds only 100lb or something. Thanks

Expert Reply:

The Thule roof rack for your 2021 Honda CR-V, with a naked roof, has a 165 lbs weight capacity and you will need the following parts:

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 53" Long - Qty 2 item # TH711420

Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4 item # TH710501

Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp and Edge Clamp Roof Rack Feet - 5046 item # TH145046

The system itself weighs 24 lbs so you will want to consult your owner's manual and see what your roof is actually rated for because it may be lower. You will want to use the lowest number. All of the roof racks available for your Honda will be comparable in weight and capacity.

If you would like matching keys to secure both this roof rack and you Thule Force XT item # TH6357B you can use the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 6 item # TH450600.
