Avoid these Aero wipers

Suggest you avoid these eBay Aero blades as they leave a 1 inch stream of bubbles in centre of screen. Doesn't seem any cure.

I followed the recommendation of a member and bought HYBRID WIPERS from these www.wiperblades.co.uk for my 75, cost about £14, and have proved excellent.

I've got cheapo aero's on my car presently & they're alright.
BTW, l had a pair of Bosch wipers on with an aerofoil on the drivers side which was squeaky from new. Eventually l removed the aerofoil & this cured the problem. I think it simply added too much weight for the rubber to handle.

Michelin Rainforce sold at Aldi when they have them in, and at £4.99 they are excellent

£6.54 for a pair incl. delivery?

ONE of these may help extend the life beyond a week or two.

(by the way, swap them over after wiping them down with a dampened clean cloth, and clean weekly, or replace with aero wipers designed for non aero arms)
