I would be happy to! To attach a roof rack to the raised rails of your 2024 Kia Telluride, I recommend the roof rack by Yakima which includes the following parts:

Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2 item # Y00426

TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Raised, Factory Side Rails - Qty 4 item # Y33TR

This aero bar roof rack system has a 165 lbs capacity. I recommend adding the Yakima Same Key System item # Y07204 to prevent theft.

A great perk of Yakima's products is you can buy larger lock core kits 6 item # Y07206 or 8 item # Y07208 and have the roof rack and other Yakima accessories all controlled by the same key.

Thanks for reaching out, Ryan. There are a few differences between the hitches. The B&W hitch part #BW82PR has a slightly higher towing capacity but the ground clearance is less. You will have 11-3/4" ground clearance with the B&W but…

Hey Ryan. The lack of trimming on the B&W Trailer Hitch item #BW82PR compared to the etrailer item #e45ZR does come with a bit of a trade off. The receiver for the B&W item #BW82PR sits lower when installed on your 2025 Kia Telluride…

I'm not sure why they include that replacement latch but that is not required for any of the aftermarket hitches or wiring. It is probably something related to the installation of the OEM hitch. The etrailer #e45ZR you referenced is what I would…
