An improved square bar system
Just like the first Thule bars I owned many years ago, these SquareBar Evo bars accommodate the original load stops. After several iterations of aerodynamic Thule and non-Thule bars, I realize now prefer the square bar system for ladders, lumber, canoes, etc. The Evo system foot is an improvement over the original. Wind noise (on a 2023 Kia Telluride) is managed by keeping front bar as far rearward as practical, and using a spiral of bungee cord on both bars.

Thule Rack System Install and Interoperability
Bought a new set of towers and SquareBar EVO for a new car. Installation was easy and quick. I love the torque wrench tool to deliver precise torque to the hold down bolts. I have old bike racks from an older EVO bar and they fit perfectly. One of the best engineered products I have ever purchased

Cross bars
I find it very disconcerting that in 2018 I purchased a fit kit and cross bars to my 2017 Jeep grand Cherokee and then discovered that I had to purchase a complete !new fit kit and crossbars for my 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This is in my opinion LUDICROUS

Great to have square bars still
I’ve had most of the different bars and I still prefer the square bar, thanks Thule for continuing to make this product.

no instructions!
I just opened the box and don't see any instructions. I just see two metal bars. I'm not sure if i have all the parts...Seems I will need to research how to assemble on line!

Then how do you put roof-top tent with two adult?
If the max load is 220 pounds, two adult plus the tent is easily over 300 lbs. Please explain? Thanks.

Easy to assemble
Easy to assemble, perfect fit. Square bar is noisy from wind, however it is the preferred choice to attach cargo with rope. Wing bar is not as good if you are tieing cargo down with rope.

Solid but noisy
I put this bar on my 2019 F150 supercrew and it is a real solid bar. However wind noise is horrible starting as low as 70km/hr and unbearable at 90km/hr. I move the bar back with no relief. Then I used an old pool noodle, cut length way and wrapped it around the front bar and the wind noise was eliminated for both front and back bars. The back bar didn't need a noodle.

Good basic roof rack option.
We are quite happy with the Thule SquareBar Evo 118 product. Pros: - Relatively easy to install - Lightweight - Look good. Cons: - Noisy on the highway as they are not aerodynamic.
