I would stick with the OEM version for the load bars as it has a built in tightening/torque handle. Most other aftermarket (Yakima/Thule/Inno) all have an extra tool used to torque.
Really IMO, just stick with the OEM load bars. All of the BMW accessories are just rebranded Thule. So in theory you could get them from anywhere (REI, FBMP, CL) and just source the mounting hardware from BMW. That's what I did with my ski rack - just reused the Thule ski rack from my old Volvo, and purchased the mounting hardware to attach to the OEM load bars. |
Ok so base racks oem and then do I need additional ski racks or do they make base racks that open and I can slide skis in between? If I need ski racks then which ones would go with the oem base rack and which would you recommend?
