Quick Summary
These Bmw 5 Series Touring F11 roof bars are made for vehicles from 2010 to 2017 with flush-mounted roof rails. They are lockable roof bars and are described as a roof rack for this specific fitment, so the main check is whether your car has the correct rail shape before ordering.

The listing also states that a suitable side groove must be present and that the bars do not fit raised or open rails, smooth rails without a groove, fixed points, factory T-track roofs, rain gutters or bare roofs.

What to Compare Before Buying
- Vehicle fitment: Check that your car is a Bmw 5 Series Touring F11 from 2010 to 2017.
- Rail shape: Confirm that the vehicle has flush-mounted roof rails with a side groove.
- Load limit: Compare the stated 75 kg dynamic load and 150 kg static load with the item you plan to carry, while also following the vehicle maker’s roof-load limit.
- Accessory fit: Check that any roof box, bike carrier, ski carrier or similar accessory matches the bar fitting system.
- Vehicle roof type: Make sure the car is not fitted with raised rails, fixed points, rain gutters or a bare roof.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
The important fit check for this product is the rail profile. It is intended for flush-mounted or closed roof rails on the Bmw 5 Series Touring F11, and the rail must have a suitable side groove for secure attachment. If the car has open or raised rails, or a different roof arrangement, this set will not suit.
Before You Decide
Confirm the exact model year, the flush-rail roof type and the side groove before choosing an offer. Also check the stated load figures against both your intended carry load and the vehicle maker’s roof-load limit. If your car uses a different roof arrangement, a different roof-bar set will be needed.
