So I just got a 2023 Santa Fe and need some bars before our trip to Oregon in three weeks. Im torn between the Thule WingBar Evo and the Yakima JetStream set. The Thule looks super sleek but man the price is steep, almost $700 with all the fit kits. I found some generic ones on Amazon for like $150 but I'm scared theyll whistle or fly off on the highway. We gotta fit a large cargo box and a mountain bike up there so it needs to be sturdy. Is the Thule worth the extra cash for the noise reduction or does the Yakima do basically the same thing for less? My budget is ideally under $500-600 total. Which one should I go with?

I spent ages comparing drag coefficients before buying the Yakima JetStream Black 50 Inch Crossbars for my Santa Fe. Honestly, I'm so satisfied with the 165lb dynamic load rating. They handle my cargo box and bike with zero flex at 75mph. Quick tip: make sure the rubber infill strips are cut perfectly to length. Even a tiny gap causes that annoying whistle.
