so I sold my car that used teh Michelins

they were wiping well when I sold teh car

teh set on teh other lancer is still wiping streak-free, but not screech-free

makes a lil screech when light amount of water is on teh glass

I went back to HS on the L200 though

at $30.00 a piece, they work well to change every year

^^^Yeah, 150 for one right? (Valpark's price is ridiculous). The frameless wiper blades are better bacause of their shape. The portion that holds the blade to the glass is slightly flexible, so as to allow dirt and debre to bounce off. Compared to normal wiper blades with the frame, debre can get stuck inbetween the frame's holes and cause scratches to "appear" on your glass. The frameless wiper blades also are designed to propel the water off the wiper blade as it comes into contact with it. So if there's a heavy shower and you turn them on, the water on the glass is actually scooped away and thrown to the right side of the vehicle.

Take a look here:
These are the Rain X blades.

They hold up well at highway speed too (80km/s) and

this is the type (frameless) that Rev Tek has for $98 each...not too bad considering they go for about $32USD a pair
