Wipers?

This may be the stupidest question asked on this board, but I was hoping somebody could lead me towards finding the right replacement wipers for my '96 Maxima. I saw different types and sizes at Autozone, but wasn't sure what to get. Thanks for the help.

I replaced mine recently and the wipers are amazing. I had them on my honda accord and they were the best wipers I have ever used on a car (durable, quiet). I post the brand tommorrow, I think it's like addco rain edge?

Just buy whatever is readily available in your area.

I recently replaced my factory garbage with some Bosch Microedge and they work great..decently priced if you ask me..

I know there are some apparently "elite" brands out there that cost double the Bosch's and they work the same..I know those PIAA wipers cost 2.5 times more than the Bosch's I bought..I bought some cheap $5 metal wiper blades for my beater and they work just as well..

Personally, a wipers a wiper, my preference has been the metal ones since they contour to the windshield so much better than the plastic ones, given it a cleaner wipe..

I thought the Maximas had a 22" drivers side, and a 21" passenger side? Nonetheless, those sizes should be easily found..frankly the 18" seem to be the most popular among cars..
