which wiper blades?ahoier 01-11-2009, 11:44 AM what kind of wiper blades does everyone use? Usually, I'm one to go for the cheap ones....2 or 3 bucks off the shelf. Well, this past oil change, I had Walmart install "their brand" (some un-named, I asked them and they said they don't have them on the shelf) - it was like 9 dollars for the wipers +installation (receipt lists the wipers as $3 each lol). Well, it's been maybe 3 months, and they need to be replaced again, so I was curious what wipers everyone else uses. Is it worth the 12 bucks to go for the "Michelin" brand wiper blades? I was reading the package, and they are made of some other material (not plastic - but can't remember what) that is supposed to be more "resistant" to the elements/windshield wash, etc. And well, the thing is, it hasn't even rained much lately here....for me to use the wipers, but I do use the windshield washer fluid a lot :) RacerE7773 01-15-2009, 12:07 AM I tried the funky angled blades on my cars, and they were supposed to last for "years"; they lasted 6 months like regular blades.:eek7: So I am going back to using Anco blades. 97TaurusGuy 01-31-2009, 02:44 PM Michelin blades are worth the money. Bought htem for a minivan and they worked great. AC Delco blades are also great. oldblu65 02-23-2009, 02:46 PM Another great option is using RainX on your windows . It sheds the water and usually ( unless you're in a downpour ) you won't even need to turn the wipers on . This lessens the wear and tear on your wipers and wiper motor assembly .Just my $ 0.02 ! vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
