Interior/Exterior Rain-X Wiper Blades

I have the new Michelin ones that have Teflon impregnated into the rubber

Any close up pics installed? Does the tip touch the glass on the rest position?

The Michelin Radius blades work great for me. I recommend installing 18" on both sides instead of the 19" as suggested in the booklet at the store for the passenger side wiper. 19" seems a wee bit too long.
Now i need to figure out where i can get the replacment blades when the time comes...

I bought a set of these recently. Went with two 18" blades since they didn't have any 19" ones in stock. They suck, neither one makes full contact with the windshield, I only just noticed when I was driving in the rain last week. Last year a friend who works for a Valeo distributor gave me a set of Valeo Flex Blades and they worked great. They did not have an airfoil attached to them, just a simple, skinny blade. I am going to try & find another set of those and trash the Rain X blades. I highly recommend that people avoid the Rain X blades, at least on Mini Coopers.
