I would just get a set of Rain-X blades, if you want to get the latitudes they work really well also, but be careful in the winter as the rubber is softer and will tear more easily if iced over.

I use the $3 Anco blades and they work fine for me in all but freezing conditions (where no blade except a winter one will do). What exactly are you wanting when you say "best?"

I have the rainX ones they contour to your window better then any other blades I have used, plus I used to live on the oregon coast and, lets just say, it rained alot there so it was worth the 15-20$ a piece I paid for them cause they worked awsome!

Like I said, just get a standard set of RainX blades, not the RainX Latitudes. Unless you want them of course, but as stated above, they are about $18 a blade.

whats wrong with the RainX Latitudes? thats what i got on both my dodges and im really happy with them, my toyota matrix has some rain x weatherbeater and there good too, but i like the way the latitudes contour to my neon and rams windshields better, course now that i live in the desert i wont be buying the latitudes most likely cause well it never rains here so whats the point, but still i dont see nothing wrong with them.

I don't believe I ever sad anything was wrong with them, they are just over priced. I got the PEAK brand of latitudes and they actually worked better for only $10/ea.

Yeah the cheaper brands seem to work better than the expensive ones I have had them all on my neons . Just got some really nice ebay ones that work really nice got them for 15bucks shipped for both. They are just like the rain x ones but better.
