roof racks - Thule vs BMW
For my 2008 X5 - does anyone have an opinion about Thule vs BMW roof racks?
Option 1
The GF has a Thule rack system + box for her car (with the square bars, not the aero), and I could use the cross bars for my X5 and just get a set of feet to fit my roof rails for $190. That is the cheapest option, and I know I could use the box.
Option 2
BMW base support system for $285.
The box mounts to the bars w/ 3.5" wide U-bolts, and I'm not sure yet if they will fit the BMW cross bars. If I go this route, then I'm stuck w/ BMW roof rack accessories.
Option 3
Thule AeroBlade Edge kit for $340
This is the low profile, low noise system. Then I'm in Thule's world.
Just looking to see if anyone has any thoughts/experiences w/ BMW roof racks to share to help me make the decision. Thanks guys! mpp
