hi

i need to replace my windshield wipers and id like to know if PIAA blades are good.. i heard silblades are good but sometime streak...

also i heard something about Bosch blades..

anyway, which blades are the best??


@cUr@-TL

 

i think BlackShadow got PIAA ones if im not mistaken, and i remmeber this being discussed and that they are better than sillblades, but i could be mistaken.

 

why not OEM? They are good enough for me. Get the wiper inserts because it's like 2 for $6-7.

 

i think PIAA's are overpriced and silblades are ok. I had silblades and they lasted me only like 6months. IMO they are not worth it. Just get ordinary BOSCH wipers that costs 10bucks and just change them every 3-4months and save yourself some money. In addition to the BOSCH wipers, use RAIN-X and your set. You can't use RAIN-X with Silblades(from my experience) because they cause the wipers to 'stutter'.

 

I use Rain-X wipers and so far in the last 4 to 5 months, I have no problems, very clean wipe and at 80 to 90 mph still good. I highly recommend them.

 

I got the PIAA's very happy with them, and I would recommend them. Here is the site that I got them for, the cheapest I found. They are still on sale. I think like 40 bux shipped, or u can swing the extra 4 bux for the PIAA sporza which has the downforce spoilers on the wiper arms, which I did, cuz the price difference is trivial. Do I notice a difference, absolutely not.

i have the piaa sporanzas i have been using piaa wiper blades for the past 2 years and i think they are worth the money. I have tried the bosch bc a salesman told me there were good and didnt carry piaa so i tried it and ended up throwing them out. I think youll be pleased with the piaa blades.

 

aight thanks for the replies guys!

i'll prolly get PIAA blades



@cUr@-TL

 

one more vote for the piaa's. i got the carbon fibre finish and i think it looks good on my nbp

 

One more vote for the PIAA...got them on my Ody. Wipes way better than my crappy Silblades (on my TL).

 

I`ve got Piaa for my 03TLs, Sillblades for my Wifes 03 VW Beetle. Both about the same, But the Piaa`s just slightly better single clean sweep, where the Sills takes two. I hope this helps!

 

thx! confirms my choice!

i was at wallymart last week and i noticed silicone blades made by Lexor. they were called Lexor ST and they're made out of GE Silicone which i think the Silblades use as well. and these are a lot cheaper than Silblades and PIAAs. anyone tried them before?
i found this on google:
