Wiper blade sizefrehol 03-15-2006, 04:02 PM Hi, As I do not have the original windscreen wiper blades on my -95 :eek: am I not sure what size they should be. Mine are about 455mm long (almost 18 inches), but at least the one on the passenger side looks a little long... Anyone know what's right? /Freddy mike2004tct 03-16-2006, 08:03 AM 20" blades are what's called for (508mm). 13" for the back window (14" will also work) tom3 03-16-2006, 09:14 AM On my 97 with the original blades, on a cold morning the blades would hit about 1/4 of their length, really a poor setup on that curved windshield. I put on some 18 inch blade with the extra pressure arms and it did help so maybe someone also had this problem and went with the shorter blades. jmagerl 03-16-2006, 10:44 AM I have a 99 blazer and a 96 s10 both take 20 inch on the front. I find though that they are the crappiest blades I have ever seen and lift off the window at speeds higher than 50 mph. I find 18 inch blades work much better. (x pounds of force distributed over fewer inches means cleaner window?) You dont really miss the extra length. Jon Teeter 03-20-2006, 03:59 PM It does call for 20" blades but I would try the 18's like the other guys suggested seems like a good idea ZL1power69 03-20-2006, 04:27 PM i desided to replace mine with triple edge silicone blades and im pissed. the manufacture claims they don't streak but do they ever. the last inch and a half of the 20 inchers hang off the window too. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
