I need some new blades and I was wondering about these new Rain-X blades that are supposed to be the best thing out there... the ones that "form" on your windshield and have no pressure points. It looks like they have them for 4th gen Camaros on their website. Does anybody use them? It sounds like a direct fit according to their site, so I might try them out and I was looking for some opinions or better options.
Thanks

Not the Rain-X Latitude, but I use Bosch Icon's. Essentially the same things, and best blades I've ever used.

not to hijack, but does anyone have the problem where the blades dont have enough pressure against the window? how do i fix this!
I don't have these on any of my cars, but some people I work with have used them with some good, and some bad luck. I always buy expensive blades with lifetime warranties so I change them every 3 months or so haha. So maybe every 500 miles...

Where are you getting wiper blades with lifetime warranties? I've never heard of that.
Well... maybe just a lifetime for me. I get them from work :)
So I overmaintain my car, my bad.

No I was asking cause I was going to go get blades for all my cars at the same place!
Ha ha! Maybe a 1 year warranty for most blades, but until I quit/get fired, its a lifetime for me.

Shoot, Autozone does ZERO warranties on wiper blades.

I will have to try those, I use regular rain x on my windshield, so I think I would really like the rain x blades.

You can get lifetime blades at Wal-Mart, actually. Most people don't know about it, but if you look at the TripleEdge brand (something like that) they say lifetime warranty on the box. Just keep the receipt and the boxes for the blades. There was only 1 guy I ever saw come in and get them warrantied out. All you need is the box and receipt and they'll do it.

Those radius blades are very good. We've got them at the dealership and they have got the stuff to adapt them to an older wiper arm. The new arms for these new blades are a little funky. I personally haven't used them, but I sold some to my friends and they do work very well.
The bad thing is price.
