Can anyone recommend a high-quality 'winter' wiper blades for the 5th-gen max, the ones with the rubber surrounding the entire blade to prevent snow build-up during a storm. Also, where can I get it.

I'm in New Jersey.

Thx!!!

 

i dunno if these are winter blades or not but nextcollection.com has some carbon fiber PIAA blades. dunno if theyre any good though...

 

I would recommend going one size smaller on the driver side and definately think about a springs for the wiper arms. above 60MPH they tend to fly, above 75 they are useless.

 

Do they fly out of the windshield above 80mph or something? my OEM blades are stuck in my 99 max since I brought, time to replace them. Should I go winter blades or get a new set of normal blades? I live in Toronto so theres lots of snow here.

 

hey guys, PIAA blades are the bomb. . .made of silicone....

 

how much do they cost?

 

PIAA makes blades???????????? Son of a.........

 

I asked the same question last year going into the winter season. From research and debate, I ended up with the Anco Aerovantage blades. Theyre pretty great, and not that expensive. I wanted to use the Bosch Excel, but they didnt make the right size for our cars. This season, Im going with the PIAA blades. Not just because the hype, but because they are made of silicone. They can withstand a higher degree in temperature and a lower degree as well. They will remain flexable and resist the cracking that normal blades exhibit in winter freezes. Hold on to the computer desk here guys, they run about 30 bucks....EACH. Ive only seen a couple of sites with them online. If you want them locally, just go to wherever in town sells the PIAA bulbs, theyll have them.

 

I went to the nextcollection site I am am a little confused, the blades are silicone and the whole aperatus is carbon fiber? Can you just by the blades and slip them in, or do you have to buy the whole wiper?

maybe you can save a couple $$$$$.

 

wow that's some expensive wiper blades, i've always been getting oem replacement blades, i haven't switched out the arms yet. i really like the nissan wiper blades, they're really sturdy compared to the bosch. i used to change my wiper blades on my CRX very often trying many other brands.. but the nissan ones seems to hold up real well. if the wiper blade starts to skip maybe the part where the clamp is a lil bent, just squeeze the metal so it bends back to where it is snug and the pivoting action becomes stiffer.. works for me..
