[quote="BigAl"]John, are to talking about flat blades or standard types? In the past only original standard alfa romeo blades worked properly, other makes, inc bosch were too big / heavy and slowed down. I am asking if anyone has tried tesco flat blades, i am worried that the big block in the middle will cause the blade to slow down, like when using non original standard ones.[/quote]

its not the cost, its that big fat block in the middle, I dont think i could live with it. It looks bad enough on the rear window, let alone on the front.

I've had the tesco ones on the front of my 155 for over a year now, all good so far. I believe i payed £12 for them.

Got Bosch ones front and back without any problems.
I'd guess 'alfa romeo' ones are probably bosch or valeo.

Are you talking about Tescos aero blades?
I still get 35mpg, it is not a race car and I prefer a little weight over a crappy sound system

Have had them on my car for 2 years now, like oem wipers they need changing now but for performance wise they are good, no problems with high speed/wind and heavy rain, the motor copes just fine and just imagine how much fuel you could save al over a year as these are really light.....................unlike your sound system!!

Post subject: tesco flat wiper blades
Has anyone fitted tesco flat wiper blades to the front windscreen?
In the past i have fitted standard bosch blades and have tried with spoilers to prevent lifting.
I went back to standard alfa romeo ones as all others are too heavy, bulky and ended up being pushed into the screen and slowing down.
I just bought a 16" tescos flat wiper blade at £3 for the rear and notice a huge block in the middle. I am concearned that this might have the same affect as the other non original alfa blades.
Comments please guys.
