These are some of the roof racks that you can purchase:

A Fixed Point Rack

These racks are threaded into the factory fitting point on the roofline, which will give you a very reasonable load limit. However, there is no flexibility as to where the rack will sit.

Raised Roof Rail

If you have a factory-fitted raised rail, then this is a good option for you. Having a raised roof rail will give you a high load limit and flexibility to where you want your rack placed. Also, there is no contact with the paint on your car. However, some of these rails can be short and are positioned closer to the vehicle's rear.

It is also better to always check the manufacturer’s recommended maximum load.

Door Mount

This roof rack will fit directly onto your paintwork with a clamp and will be secured on the top of your doorframe. These roof racks tend to be very popular amongst most vehicles, but it does have direct contact with your paintwork. Also, the load limit tends to be lower on these roof racks.

Track Mount

When you have factory-fitted mounts on your vehicle, you can use a track mount roof rack. These racks are bolted or riveted on, so they are secure. Also, these racks will allow for flexibility in your positioning, depending on your needs. Plus, they are straightforward to install.

However, if you do not already have tracks on your vehicle, it could be harder to aftermarket ones installed aftermarket, but that all depends on the car.
