Default Best roof rack system for a Porsche Macan S

Purchased a macan with factory rails ( black ) which were ordered with the vehicle. We need best roof rails and what you think is the best carrier system secure and wind resistance.

I have Yakima bars and legs that work with open roof rails as was on my old Acura RDX. Yakima did not have new "legs" that would work with the flush rails on the Macan. A Thule cross bar system is very expensive (well over $400). In the end I bought the factory cross bars from Suncoast Porsche for $280 delivered to my house. Factory unit has a mini torque wrench that prevents over tightening.

Factory Cross Bars also come with locks on each leg, and a canvas carrying case to store the cross bars in.

Thule Aero Edge. I have them for our Macan GTS with factory black flush rails. They don't make wind noise, look sleek and are lockable.
