Wiper blades?

[glendog74]

Really boring question...

What wiper blades do people recommend? Not sure what BMW stick on as OEM replacements.

The Valeo flatblade wipers look quite cool (if wipers can be considered cool...!)

BMW does a replacement for our cars just like those - they are called "Evo Flat Blades" I have a set myself. Personally I think they looked a bit odd on our cars.

Got the Michelin Aero wiper blades on mine (picked up a set when I was in the US on the last trip), and they work perfectly with no streaking or judder.

They look a lot better than the spangly OEM ones too :thumbs:

I personally dislike the single-blade (they are made like this in order to be cheap).
They look cheap, they are crappy etc etc.
I love the OEM ones.
