Costco's Michelin Stealth Wiper Blades Anybody Tried?

I can't stand the streaks from the wipers. They are less than a year old and i've tried everything from claying the windshield to cleaning,wiping the wipers.

Should I buy new refills or just get new blades? Saw some Costco's Michelin Stealth Wiper Blades at costco for $11 and was going to buy some.

 

Just bought the michelin high performance ones from wal mart today and they work great. Now I need to set the washer nozzles so they don't aim towards my back window!

 

lol my washer fluid doesn't even go pass 1/4 up the windshield!

 

I'm not even running windshield wipers lol, I just rain x the windshield and it's better than wipers

 

wipers should be replaced every 3k miles or 3 months, also you should be able to aim the jets with a pin (stick the pin in and move the nozzel)

 

3 months 3k miles? What kind of blades are those? Some Chinese crap? Wiper blades should last at least a year.

 

My G in garage over night and during extreme cold or heat, wipers as new after one year.

 

mine are still in great shape since I bought the car about two years ago and it has about 16k miles

 

I have being using Costco's Michelin for a few years now. At $12 a blade they are good values.

 

Do you live in a rain forest?

 

thats what i read on the pack but then again they just want money so of course they would put that. and lately, ohio has been the f'in rain forest

 

Definitely the atmosphere and environment you live in makes a huge difference. SoCal is not so kind on exposed rubber products. You're really lucky to get 12 months out of them. My car is 9 months old and I need to replace soon. Even though we don't get all that much rain, just trying to keep up with the grime that builds up here (especially along the coast where I live and work) is a PIA.

The Costco wipers sound like a deal especially if they do a good job clearing the windshield.

 

I live in Seattle and it rains a lot here. I replace my rain-x wipers every year or so if it starts streaking.
