What are some good windshield wipers to use??

 

I've had good results with regular Rain-X wipers.

 

how long do they last?

 

It depends, but normally around 6 months or so.

 

I've been doing the regular Rain-X blades also. They work as good as the expensive ones. Next time around though I think I'm going to try the ones from the link below. Saw the ad in the back of Car & Driver. I had some long life blades back in the 90's but the company must have gone broke.

factory or rain x for sure. the blades will last as long as you take care of them. kinda like your paint, if you dont take care of it dont expect it to last

 

yup rain-x wipers are bad ***!!

 

Michelin Radius!!!!
Its like a squeegee on your windsheild.

 

factory

 

Ive tried a few different kinds, but after a few minutes of use no matter how heavy/light the rain or how clean my windsheilds and wipers are they start to chatter. Anyone know why? 96 Civic Sedan. Overall my car is in great shape, the windshield has some small pits though.

 

i know it kinda defeats the purpose, but but some rainx on the windsheild it will help the blade slide across with no problems

 

I bought the cheapest thing wal mart had and they were 2.98 a piece. They seem to work fine to me.

I've seen this, but it usually has to do with going 80 or over.

My favorite wipers are Anco Aerovantage. I've had the same set on for over a year. They don't show any wear at all. I also live in WA, so I'm used to the amount of rain you'd be dealing with. All I do is prop them up and wipe them down with the washcloth when I wash my car.

 

I use Honda refills on the stock cages. Cost me like $8 every 7-8 months.

 

Yeah, agree on the $3 Walmart specials! At that price I can get 3 or more Rain-X brand ones. And since I've honestly tried both brands, there really wasn't much difference at all. If you want Rain-X stuff, use the liquid and spead it on the windshield. Now that stuff works!
