Hi Andrew,

If you have a Gran Turismo or Sedan model then I recommend going with the Yakima SkyLine Roof Rack for Fixed Mounting Points # Y27TB. If you have a Wagon model then you'll need the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack # TH37YG instead. Both of these options are going to sit about 3" - 4" above your factory rails, which is pretty standard for most roof rack brands.

Hey Andrew, how did the fit turn out with the Yakima SkyLine or Thule WingBar roof rack on your BMW? Your feedback could really help others choosing between those two low-profile options.

Hey @JesseM, I ended up going with a $50.00 one off a Saturn Vue.
