Sleek, beautiful cross bars. Had these on a previous car and will continue to buy them until something better comes along!

looks good but a lot of wind noise (high pitch whistle) if not all of the rubber installed on the bottom of the blade. If installed correctly problem is solved, but I was tempted not to install as I thought it was just for looks.

I have two other Thule rack systems that use the square tubing. I debated staying with the square tubing for this installation so I could use the various lengths that I own but ultimately decided the sleeker styling was more appropriate on the Jeep. Time will tell if I made the right call.

Adjustable slide with reference to slide positions in instructions made setting the width with the Rapid Traverse mounts exceptionally simple. The all black looks excellent on a black car!

Beautiful design and quality build. Very happy with the black finish as I was unsure as to which to get - the black or silver. Super easy pre-assembly in my living room required no adjustments when fitting to my car. Outstanding design!

Great load bars. Extremely slick for a new luxury car.

Solid, dependable cross bars for your carry needs. Ocassaionally I hear a little bit of a whistle coming in through the sunroof (while shut). I don't think the Aeroblades are making the noise. I think it's actually the foot pods (which are nowhere near as aerodynamic as the aeroblades).

I have a canoe and Yakima does not make canoe brackets to carry a canoe. I assumed that they would.

i do agree with some other reviewers that the quality of the material Thule is using now doesn't compare the the cross bars I have owned in the past (both Square and original Aero bars). I am a little concerned as to the durability over time and feel like the black paint with most certainly come off as I install and remove any accessories. On a positive note, these bars are 100 times quieter than my previous ones. This is the main reason for my upgrade and I am happy that I bought them. Previous bars were VERY loud. A little better when I bought the fairing but still pretty loud. Now I can even drive with my sunroof open!! Much better design

Bars look really sleek on the car, can barely notice the noise with low volume music on! Even at higher speeds (>70mph) these things barely made any noise.
