The length of the roof bar is determined by the width of your car. However, for most of Thule’s load carrier systems you can choose between elegant aluminium bars or the more basic square bars. The aluminium aero bars are lighter, more aerodynamic, and have a T-track that allows you to use the full width of the roof bars for fitting load accessories.
