Re: Are Winter Wipers Good?

if your wipers are 18" or longer they are useless. they catch air at highway speeds causing them to lift, and they can cause your wiper arms to break or strip out if you try to use them to clear snow deeper than an inch or so. Also, due to the stiffer frame, they may not follow the curvature of your windshield, causing the end of the wiper to not touch.
