Question:
I have a set of Thule 480R towers and the fit kit for my car. Can you tell me all models of aerobars new and old that may be used with these feet. I would like to move away from the square bars.

Hey Gregory! The Rapid Traverse 480R are compatible with the Thule AeroBlade, WingBar Evo, SquareBar Evo, and ProBar load bars. Just make sure they aren't the 480 which were only compatible with the old square bars. Thule recommends the 53" bars for your 2017 Porsche Cayenne so I would get the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420. The WingBar Evo is going to be the quietest of the bunch and also looks the best in my opinion. If you need anything else don't hesitate to reach out in the comments below.

Hey Gregory, how did the WingBar Evo crossbars work out with your 480R towers on the Cayenne? Your experience could point others in the right direction when upgrading from square bars.
