Question:

Hi, Im looking for the LOWEST Aero bar setup for a 2023 mazda cx30. It comes with flush roof rails but I will remove them and go with fixed attachment points if it will make a 2 inch or more difference. I want the 50 inch bars that extend beyond the foot. Thanks,

Removing the factory rails will definitely be the way to go if you want to have the roof rack sit as low as possible. This way the towers can sit directly on the roof, as opposed to sitting on top of the rails. Removing the rails is actually something we recommend fairly frequently for a 2023 Mazda CX30. For you I recommend the Thule WingBar Setup. The towers and crossbars will add only about 4-1/8" of height to your roof. This consists of the following parts;

Thule Wingbar 53" # TH711400
Evo Clamp Feet # TH710501
Fit Kit # TH38RJ

Thule makes an extremely solid roof rack. It will be easy to assemble. The design of the aero bar and top T-track strip will minimize drag and road noise. You have the option to add locks # TH450400 for additional security. I know the Thule roof racks are a bit more expensive than others. It really is top quality and it is going to look good on top of your Mazda. I have linked our install video below if you want to take a look.
