Default go with thule 400xt or thule 400xtr for a 1998 volvo v70 car rack system

The Thule 400XT Aero roof rack system is engineered to fit your 1998 Volvo v70 wagon perfectly and is very quick to install. No matter what gear carriers you plan to mount on your roof, you will need a multi-purpose roof rack base system. The Thule 400XT Aero system includes four 400XT Aero feet, four FitKit 161 Clips (these FitKit Clips are specific to your 1998 Volvo V70 wagon) and two load bars (please note the 58" load bars are the recommended length for your rooftop). You can then attach any of Thule Racks roof mount gear carriers to the front and rear load bars.

Also, the Thule 400XTR Rapid Aero car rack system is also a highly recommended option for your Volvo v70. Works exactly the same way as the regular Thule 400XT Aero system (uses the same Thule 161 Fit Kit clips too) except that it uses the elliptical Thule Rapid Aero load bars (the RB53 Rapid Aero bars are the length necessary for your vehicle), which are very sleek and aerodynamic offering a more low-profile and modern appearance. You can then attach any of Thule Racks roof mount gear carriers to the front and rear load bars on this roof rack system too.
