The bars don't really effect gas mileage. Can't comment on the OEM yet as I haven't installed it. I don't notice any extra noise with the Thule but I keep my sunroof closed most of the time. The Thule cover and Allen key you can lose or misplace. You won't misplace any pieces as it's all attached to the bars. The OEM has a slight advantage on installation as everything is all together. After a quick adjustment of the bars the covers fit with ease and the key fits into the locks and turns with out any resistance. I had the same issue with my Thule covers where it was a hard fit and the locks wouldn't turn easily. Then you need to adjust the bars to ensure it's perpendicular to the roof rails. If the covers don't fit perfectly on when trying to close. But not expensive) I've read people having trouble with the locks on the OEM bars. Both have a cover with lock so thieves cant access the clamps to steal the bars. With the OEM there is a small lever which you pull down and turn to tighten the clamp and push back up. With Thule you use an Allen key which is provided to tighten the clamps to the rails. Installation on both is pretty much the same. I feel the roof rails would fail before the cross bars. The Thule can hold a lot more but I wouldn't put anything over 165lbs on my roof to begin with. I believe the OEM bars weight limit is 165. Example: damn Christmas tree the wife makes me get every year. The OEM bars sit higher which would have a slight advantage when loading stuff on top of your car and making sure nothing scratches or touches your roof. I do like the looks of the aeroblades more. The quality on both are very good and similar. I currently have the Thule aeroblades and just recently was able to obtain perfect used BMW cross bars and BMW 350 box for a deal I couldn't pass up. The oem one I can find for $220ish new but the Thule would cost me ~$500 that includes the locks.

I hear the oem ones are not as good quality? Any truth to that? Ex) plastics that hold the rails and blades fade or crack and the locks are not as strong. Does anyone have the 53inch and is it too much overhang? As I don't think 3inch extra on each side would make too much of a difference. The Thule website is stating I would need the 47inch blade. Please give me your input and to which is the better roof rack system specifically for the x3 please. It appeared to use the smaller grooves rather than the places designed for mounting, and it looks like it can't fit very well (I didn't get a very good look.) And when I looked at something something similar on mine it looks like there would be a lot of overhand at the front - perhaps increasing the chances of problems with wind.I did do a search and am getting mixed reviews. Then coincidentally, today I saw the same old model of Rocket Box on an old Subaru Legacy. I wondered about drilling extra holes, which Yakima doesn't recommend. She sometimes doesn't cooperate, and I'm worried that might happen more - meaning me lifting 100lb of dog into the Forester too many times and getting frustrated (and weak). After a lot of coaxing she did jump in, but I could see her flinching. I mounted the Rocket Box properly, and set the hatch appropriately, then tried to get Morgan to jump in. It took me a long time to get the dog to jump up into the back with the hatch fully open (the rear deck is pretty high and Morgan thought she was going to hit her head or back).

The top of the hatch is now about 9' lower than it was. The problem is that the Yakima round bars can't be moved far enough forward such that the rear hatch can open fully. Because the Forester is small (at least when there's a very large dog), I want to use an old Yakima Rocket Box. I'm taking the Forester on a 2 week road trip starting in a few days.

I'd ask this on a Yakima forum or general cargo box forum, but I can't find anywhere appropriate and I know people are active here.
