    Coming from the rainiest city in the United States, I will tell you right now, they're all garbage. Just buy whatever's cheapest and replace them when they wear out. I usually get mine at the Honda dealer because they fit right and cost $8.00.

    They are Silicone, NOT rubber, so the UV doesn't destroy them like traditional rubber blades. I have had a set on the wifes van for over 2 years, and she does not complain about them at all, which means they are doing great.
    Not really too pricey, but they are going up in January, so if you are going to get a set.....get em now.
    BTW............ Aquapel is a million times better than Rainex. I sell that too.

    Re: Windshield Wipers

    I put a pair of the Silblade Flexblades on my car a couple months ago. They work really well and they were the same price as the Bosch Icons I bought last year. The Bosch's worked really well, but like all natural rubber blades they were chattering after about ten months. Even if the Silblades don't last five years they will still be worth it. They look very cool as well.
