Just letting everyone know Tire Rack has the Valeo blades for $19.95 for 2. Buy one get one. I just picked up a set for my IX and a set for my girlfriends Explorer (actually she paid for them I picked them up, haha, COOL!) for less then $43. Add shipping if you dont live in South Bend area.

I'm using Rain-X Latitudes for the first time, so I can't yet say they're the best blades I've ever used, but they may be. Also, it doesn't get very cold here so I'm no judge of their snow or cold performance.

OMG people who honestly gives a ****, they are wiper blades. I just use the rain-x but honestly don't see a difference between any of the brands. Please try to remember that you drive an el cheapo MITSUBISHI, NOT A FERRARI.

They actually mean a big deal to me. I like having streak free, quiet blades that perform well time after time.
