I am wondering if a 150lbs tent okay. Esp when in use with 400lbs of people inside. The 176lbs is the dynamic load. But could not find static max load rating.

If you’re using stock side rails, the cheapest option is to get 4 Yakima EZ Rider towers with 48” or 58” bars. With 4, they would distribute the load better, a couple of members here have done this.

There are a few other manufacturers that also make cross bars that fit the GX too.

Would the Yakima EZ Rider towers with bars work with a large canoe (15 ft, 150lb). I have been loading it up on stock sienna roof rack with no issue. Wondering it Yakima towers would be better and cheaper alternative to buying OEM roof bars for GX.

The EZ Riders are very sturdy and can definitely hold more load than OEM bars. If the Sienna bars can hold the load, then the Yakima bars shouldn’t have any issues.
