i've tried the michelins and they are okay but at high speeds they dont work the best. I bought my girl some rain x wipers from walmart and those work great. going 80mph in the mild rain they hold up really well...

Rain X wiper from walmart also. I've had the bosch and piaa wipers and these rain x are way better than bosch and the same as the piaa.

As others have suggested, the plain Rain-X wipers work very well. If you want something fancier and more expensive, you can try the relatively new Rain-X Latitude.

Go to autozone, get some there, for Hondas the windshield wipers there work fine - and the price is okay too.
Obviously you can't get a more complex wiper like the benz there (as that's a $250+ blade but for Hondas/Acuras just go to autozone, I forgot the brand, it's a brand they have 1 million of. They're usually fine. Never had any problem w/ them on a econobox like my probe or civic.

The Mercedes-Benz single wipers use standard refill blades. List price for the Rain-X blade for the '94-'05 E-class single wiper is only $20.99.

I am curious about the new rain-x valeo style blade...but I cannot justify $20 on a wiper.
Hell, I used to LOVE the $2 wipers from Road and Track that Target used to sell.
They were actually a really great blade...and I dont mean "a great blade for $2".

Re: (ridin98civic)
Those valeo wipers look a lot like the bosch icons my idiotic friend paid 20 bucks each for. I figure why not just get some decent wipers for 5 bucks each and change them out twice a year?

Rainx wipers with rainx washer fluid.
Chances are you probably wont need to use the wipers, I drive 70mph without my wipers all the time.
RainX washer fluid FTW
