What is the Best Roof Rack Cross Bar System For a 2022 Kia Telluride With No Factory Rails?

Question:

What is the best roof rack system that you offer for my 2022 Kia Telluride? I don't have any rails on it and I'm not sure what items I want to carry up there yet. Really just trying to decide what crossbars work best on the roof and see what I want to use it for.

I recommend the Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 for your 2022 Kia Telluride. These bars are some of the quietest bars available as they are aerodynamically designed to cut through the wind.

To mount the crossbars to the roof of your Telluride you will need the BaseLine Towers # Y00146, BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06125 and # Y06165. The 2 different fit kits are needed as the front mounts and rear mounts for the towers will be slightly different.

I do recommend getting the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07208 so that you can secure the crossbars to your roof as well as have additional lock cylinders that will fit Yakima accessories that use the SKS lock system. Having one key that fits all your locks will make it easier with additional roof mounted accessories.
