Crossbars for the BMW 5 Series generation E39 produced from 1995 to 2003. In our offer you will find sets designed specifically for the fixpoints prepared on the roof of this sedan.
The E39 generation uses factory-prepared fixpoints on the edges of the roof. The rack feet attach directly to these dedicated locations, so the position of the crossbars on the car is firmly determined by the vehicle's construction.
For cars from these production years, we recommend checking the condition of the threads in the fixpoints before the first installation. Dust or operational dirt often settles in them. Clean the threads so that the screws seat smoothly and without resistance.
Our offer includes both steel and aluminum profiles. Steel bars offer a sturdy construction and accessory mounting via classic U-bolts. Aluminum profiles have a more aerodynamic cross-section and generally feature a T-track in the crossbar into which bike or ski racks slide using adapters.
If you already have a roof box or sports equipment carriers at home, verify what type of mounting your accessories require before purchasing. Always verify the exact composition of individual sets and the bar mounting type directly in the selected product detail.
When packing for a holiday or a longer trip, keep the permitted roof load limit in mind. The total limit includes the weight of the crossbars themselves, the weight of the empty box, and all the cargo you load into it. You can find the maximum permitted roof load in your vehicle's manual.
Choose a roof rack suitable for your E39 generation, or check out the next generation E60 or the categories 5 Series and BMW.
