those are just a copy of Valeos... but for half the price! wonder if atleast half the quality?? buddy tried Tricos on his 03 and I did on my old car. both chattered like crazy after a week's use. let us know how they hold up.

same concept as Valeo, but Vs come with spoilers

I think oem maxima driver's side wiper blades are 26", isn't 24" too short?
what's your opinion?

thank you,

Yeah the biggest they make is a 24" but the coverage is fine. I have no issues what so ever.

got Bosch Icon blades..

i just went to go get a pair of Trico Innovisions, but they didn't have them in stock. so i just got a pair of Bosch Icon blades instead. they're just like Valeo blades with intergrated wind spoilers.
they didn't have 26" one, so I got a 24" and 18" blades, $22 and $18 each.
they work great and very quiet. I don't know how they'll work on highways.
they offer $15 mail-in rebate store gift certificate now if you get a pair.

I jumped on the Valeos whem they came out, and yeah they are awesome, but I dont think I would pony up another $80 when they are shot. $30 for Tricos that look the same are a deal to me. Ive had the valeos on for almost a year and they still work great in the rain, and snow is as good as you are gonna get..downside is you cant replace just the blade insert, oh well. The max shoulda had these type of wipers OEM, I mean every car has them now, even Fords and Chevys. I highly reccomend Bosch, I had them on the car before Valeo, and PIAA before that (yes Ive had 4 different pairs of wipers on a car Ive owned for 2 years, I know I have a problem )

Bosch Icon wiper blades looks just like the Valeo.

I got them from advance autoparts.

The finish on the piaa super sporza wipers came off and they were a chalky black after only a few months, I was pretty suprised to see that happen to such an expensive wiper.

Thanks, I installed a set of Bosch premiums on my ride, however installed a set of Bosch Icon on my wifes Chevy Trailblazer LTZ, both work superb. Got both sets at Advanced Auto Parts. Prices ranged from $16 to $21 per blade.

Call me a radicla, but I have been using silicone wiper blades for years. Never had a problem with them. On my blue '04 Maxima, I have SilBlades (black frame, blue material). They work well! http://www.silblade.com/
