CURT universal roof rack cross bars are constructed from lightweight aluminum, making them easy to handle and install. Aluminum is also naturally rust-resistant, making these roof rails ideally suited for outdoor exposure. CURT roof rail crossbars are tested for a weight capacity of up to 150 pounds. This provides plenty of strength to accommodate most kayaks, canoes and rooftop cargo carriers. To maximize corrosion resistance and add a sleek look to your vehicle, CURT roof rack bars feature a durable black powder coat finish. This provides a sharper look compared to the more common silver finish. The tubes also feature an oval shape and are designed to blend well with the original equipment look of the vehicle. Installing CURT roof rack cross bars on your vehicle is fast and easy, requiring zero tools! They feature a universal design that enables attachment to most roof rack side rails, and they have a maximum 50" span to fit a wide variety of vehicles, including cars, crossovers, minivans and SUVs. The crossbars are easily adjustable, and they are equipped with rubber-coated clamps to avoid scratching the finish. Also integrated into the top of each cross bar is a rubber strip to prevent scratching your cargo. For increased security, these universal roof rack cross bars have key-operated knobs that securely lock the bars onto the side rails. This helps deter theft and provides a solid attachment for stress-free transportation.

Excellent Silent Roof Rack for Lexus
CURT® - 53-3/8" Load Bars
We are very happy with our new CURT 18118 53-3/8" roof rack. Great product, great price, strong, good looking. My 2017 Lexus RX350 has factory installed flush mount side rails. Some roof racks do not work with flush mount side rails. The CURT 18118 fit perfectly, strongly, easily. This American made cast aluminum rack is silent at all the speeds we tested up to 70 MPH. We believe the CURT will be silent at any speed. Great looking, easy to install, strong, silent. Very happy.

Question:
Will this fit a 2014 Audi A4 sedan without additional hardware? As it’s not clear to me how these could mount to the A4. Thank you.

CARiD Answer:
Hello, no, these are universal bars. If you're looking for a vehicle-specific option, please see this link https://www.carid.com/2014-audi-a4-roof-racks/?filter=1&fitment_type%5B%5D=Vehicle+Specific Most base rack systems require the bars, and two other components (fit kit and foot pack), but this also will depend on if you have preexisting raised rails (from front to back of vehicle) which cross bars (from left to right of the roof) you would need.

Question:
Will these Curt crossbars fit a vehicle with flush mount side rails? Will these bars securely attach to my Lexus which has factory installed FLUSH MOUNT side rails?
