When Should You Replace Your Wiper Blades?
Wiper blades keep your windshield clear, but since they’re made of rubber, they wear out with time and need to be swapped out regularly. How long they last really depends on how often you use them, where you drive, and whether you take care of them. Watch for these signs that indicate it's time for new wipers:
Streaking or Noise
Notice streaks or that awful squeaking sound? Yep, it’s probably time for a new pair. For a temporary fix, clean the blades with vinegar or alcohol, but replace them as soon as possible.
Visible Damage
Check the rubber blades regularly for cracks, chips, or deformities. Any damage means it's time for new wipers.
Age Considerations
Standard wipers typically last 6-12 months
High-quality blades with proper care can last 2+ years
Frequent use or harsh conditions (sun exposure, dry wiping) may require replacement every 6 months
Just a heads-up—if your car sits in the sun a lot or you use your wipers all the time, it’s smart to check them more often.

Hi i have a 2006 g35x that i just got. i put sport pads in the front becuase i used them on my old car and loved the extra power that they gave me. i need new rear pads too, my question is will putting sport pads in the rear mess up my car's handling or braking? like it won't mess with the brake bias, the system that alters brake pressure to each wheel, make my car more likely to fishtail or anything like that when i hit the brakes in a corner right? it'll just give me more stopping power? i'm thinking this as all the companies sell sport pads for rear too. anyone here done this before? any tips? thanks. -
