Thule Wingbar Evo 118 (47”) Aluminum Roof Bars – Aerodynamic & Quiet

Overview

Discover the Thule Wingbar Evo 118, a premium pair of aluminum roof bars designed for a notably quiet ride and straightforward accessory mounting. Sold as a 2-pack, these bars blend a refined look with practical engineering to support a wide range of gear. The result is a versatile base for your roof rack setup on many vehicles.

Smart, Quiet by Design

Thule integrates wind diffuse technology to disturb airflow, reducing both noise and drag along the roof. The Trail Edge design further encourages clean air separation from the bar, which can contribute to a smoother driving experience on highways and mountain passes alike. While individual results vary, reduced wind resistance often pairs with a calmer cabin and potential fuel-efficiency benefits on longer trips.
