Anyone rocking the amazon offered options that look like the OEM ones..if so any success and which ones did you get?

I went with Thule mostly due to prior experience. Once you start loading cargo wind noise can be an issue but on my Tahoe the racks by themselves and even with surfboards on both sides are pretty silent. Most wind noise is caused by the straps securing it and not the racks or anything mounted.

The truck with the Thule 63” crossbars in pictures is quiet at 80 mph even with boards on it. The Thule racks are expensive because they are worth it!
