BMW 335Xi Roof Rack from Thule

Thule and Twin Turbos

The BMW 335Xi is one of the best all-around performers on the road.  The xDrive AWD system makes it an enthusiast’s favorite for ski trips and year round fun.  A unique feature of the BMW 3 series is its integrated roof rack mounts hidden under four small access panels in the roof .  Thule has developed a new foot pack to utilize these mounts for a very clean appearance.  The Thule 460R Podium Aero Fixpoint Foot is designed to work in conjunction with the Thule Podium Fit Kit 3028 to create a solid connection with your BMW’s factory mounting points.  Thule offers an aerodynamically shaped bar to span the width of the roof called the Thule RB47 47 Inch Rapid Load Bars.  These bars are made of gorgeous, light-weight aluminum that will never rust for years of reliable use.  Of course the system wouldn’t be complete without a set of Thule 544 4-pack Lock Cores to keep everything secured to your roof.  This system is very clean in appearance and makes very little noise if equipped with the highly recommended Thule 871XT Fairing.  The fairing will divert air over the rack bars to keep your ride quiet and comfortable.  With this rack in place, you can carry a wide variety of gear from skis and snowboards to a canoe.  With this roof rack, you can lend even more practicality to an already great car.  Visit us at Rackattack.com for store locations and more product information.

Roof Rack Fairings, What For?

A lot of people ask, what is that wind shield thing? what’s it for?   Well fairings are added to your Yakima or Thule rack mainly to quiet up the wind noise you may get by adding a roof rack to your car.   Fairings make a noticeable difference in any noise coming from the rack when they are added.  They also can sometimes help fuel efficiency when the rack is on the vehicle.  Both Yakima and Thule make various size fairings for different vehicles, be sure to check our automated fit guide to find the correct size for your car.  Fairings are recommended to be added to any Thule or Yakima rack when any or all accessories are attached to the bars with the exception of cargo boxes.  Fairings also help the car keep that sporty look when using your roof rack.  They just make it look cool.
