Keep in mind that if you are purchasing a Yakima rack, the towers are all the same really for most makes. It's the piece that clips on that is different, those are called Q-clips. The best bet is to go to Yakima and lay out what pieces you need. That way you can look at used racks and just buy the q-clips that you need.

I carry 2 bikes on my 04 R\A in the summer and then 4 pair of 190 skis in the winter.

It's easier and cheaper to buy a used rack and repair whatever towers need to be fixed. I got a rack for cheap and fixed the Cams, Locks, Base pads, and got new keys for less than $35.

The Yakima web page has the Evo as one option. I do not think it matters if its RS, GSR, or MR..
