For the last three years I have been using a set of Thule Wing Bar Edge Roof bars on my cars. The first car this set was used on was a F56 Mini John Cooper Works with a set of factory fitted flush roof rails and now they sit on my F31 BMW 3 Series Wagon\/Touring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly the last time I reviewed a set of roof bars was on my last F31 BMW<\/a> in around 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now this set of bars is the latest from Thule and in my opinion is an upgrade to the Thule WingBars<\/a>. The biggest difference is the much lower profile bar and clamp. It means that they offer a close-fit to the roofline for a low-profiled roof bar system. This was one of the main reason I wanted to go with Thule rather than the BMW OE roof bars that stand pretty tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When first bought I picked up the complete set from the Roofbox company<\/a> here in the UK. I plugged the details of the Mini into the system and the parts were grouped together to order. They also did a key barrel matching service so I could have one key fit all of the bars and bike racks that I own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
