Well, I am in need of some new wiper blades on my firehawk. I stopped by auto zone and saw replacement blades ranging from 8 to 30 bucks.. Is there really a difference in all of these? What is everyone else using?

 

not to much difference just get a good blade dont get the refills get the whole thing.

 

Still got my stock, assembly line wiper blades from 1998 on the Camaro. Actually they have yet to ever be turned on.

I like the Bosch blades for my daily drivers though.

 

Bosch Icon or the Valeo (from Tire Rack) one piece, "spring" type blades. Best I've EVER used!!

 

I bought the new "spring" type (one piece, contemporary styling.. basically no series of small pivoting metal arms.. it has like an exo-skeleton inside that's encased in rubber...)

Anyway, mine were from Rain-X and honestly regular blades are better... and these were $20/each

 

After looking around for refills, I bought stock replacements - shoot, they lasted 6 years in the Florida sun.

 

i've used Rain-X on all my cars and i've never had a problem with them. i never clean the blades themselves, and they've never streaked. the rubber lasts very long, with no problems. you can get teflon blades if your ride is parked outside and gets covered with snow/ice.

 

It seems like every car Ive bought needs new blades. I usually end up w/ rain-x blades and Ive never had trouble from them. I just bought bosch's for my DD Saturn and they seem to streak on me, I dont care though!!

 

Bosch blade for me. They were the most expensive but well worth it. I love em!

 

I like the michelin's

 

I got something way better than Rain-x it called Aqua-pel it is awesome let me know if anybody is interested.

 

thats the ones i got, put them on about 2 years ago,
still work perfect.
