replacement wiper blades at canadian tire

da1nonly · 12-14-2010, 10:42 AM

do they stock e90 wiper blades?

i'm guessing yes

i'm sure everyone here will chime in and say get bmw ones because they're the greatest, well I need them NOW and I'm sure any brand will do a decent job and don't know when i can get to Mike at Marenello

thanks

Costco sells Michelin ones that look almost identical to the BMW ones.

mabman · 12-14-2010, 11:14 AM

my girlfriend installed the Costco Michelins on her 2003 Honda Element and said they were crap and bot another set (not sure brand) at CT. just fyi

i was thinking of getting the reflex blades with rainx, ive heard good things about them.

pretty sure the connectors dont match. you can find out where bosch sells them thru their resellers. buttt....seriously its literally the same price from mike@maranello. ~$44. crappy tire sells around $20 a blade and its not oem....the oem wipers are great

don't care about price right now, i ripped one of my wipers off yesterday and want to replace it asap and can't get to woodbridge till the weekend at the earliest...i've gotten everything for my e90 from mike @ maranello so far, so no need to convince me that he's the man

thanks again

good luck OP, looks like snow is coming down hard again in downtown t.o.

dso · 12-14-2010, 05:09 PM

Crap tire wipers suck ass...my wife buy me some reflex ones that dont fit properly and the normal ones are just ok. I ended up going back to the dealership and buying the OEM ones which are just Bosch. So if you can find a Bosch reseller, do that. They make them for BMW. Why cheap out on just a few $$ on your wipers.

shipill · 12-14-2010, 07:19 PM

check walmart , they have some wipers for E92/E90

CaptChaos · 12-14-2010, 07:35 PM

Which retailers stock Bosch wipers?

da1nonly · 12-14-2010, 10:14 PM

i managed to fix my wiper and reattach it...i was pretty surprised since i ripped it right off and broke 2 of the clips holding it. I guess i'll keep it on till i visit maranello's and grab some from Mike. I did check Canadian tire and they had 2 that fit the 325, some precision fit that looked super crappy, and some rainx ones that looked decent.

Bavfan · 12-14-2010, 11:00 PM

If wiper body isn't damaged, do you guys not just replace the refills? Can get Bosch Edge II refills for $12 or so..

live2air · 12-14-2010, 11:01 PM

ya dont get Michelin ones at costco, dad just got them for his 5 and they squeak. ended up going to bmw to get them but i would say try wal-mart.

There are no refills for the 2007 335 blades - have to buy the entire wiper.

Darklighter · 12-15-2010, 12:17 AM

I bought the Costco ones but couldn't get them to fit on my 07 e92 328. They work fine on the wife's M5 though (Mazda5

).

What's the cheapest anyone's seen these OEM go for? Mine's still working fine at almost 4 years but some streaks are starting to show.

ctgazer · 12-15-2010, 07:17 AM

ok cools..i brought my old set to work in case you want them. pm me if you do.

Mikester · 12-16-2010, 09:04 AM

I got the Rain X wipers from Canadian Tire, but couldn't install them for some reason.
Took 2 guys there 30 minutes to figure it out afer breaking a plastic cover for 1 lol

I like them though.
