seohenning Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I am wondering if anyone has purchased a roof rack for their IS250 AWD car. I know Lexus sells one but am looking for suggestions on alternatives that might fit? (Primarily used for Skiing, but would like it to double as a bike rack if possible) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dohayon Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Bought one last summer and had a cargo carrier on it . I was concerned about marking the paint job, no problems. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one swell foop Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Buy yakima stuff, good quality. Also, use the yakima website to configure the rack you want, and write down the part numbers. Then go on eBay and buy everything for half what you'd pay in a store....slightly used parts don't affect the ability to hold stuff on the roof and come cheaper...

seohenning Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 Thanks I'll check them both out. Still looking for snow in the Northeast though, so not much use for the rack at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbochilo27 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Has anyone actually installed a Thule or a Yakima roof rack? Any concerns about noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
