Just recently installed the Yakima Jetsream HD Crossbars. They have a slight upward bow to them. I followed all of the instructions, but wanted to make sure I did everything right. Should they lay perfectly flat?

How wide did you go and which towers are you using?
Thanks!

How much did your set up cost? I opted not to go for the OEM HD crossbars as the height seemed really tall.

I don't remember the exact measurements, but just measured across and split the difference down the middle. They're holding up great and seem to not be effecting mileage. These are on the a timberlines that came with the whole setup from the dealership.

All in it was about $500 from the dealership. But that included the locks. It was a great price considering it would have been $600 or $700 depending on the retailer.
Have you put a load on those crossbars yet? I'm wondering how the rubber strap that holds the feet to the rails are going to hold up. My plan is to put a 125lb roof top tent and awning on top, looking for crossbars. I'm partial to the clamp-on feet but wondering about these that you have.
