Best Windscreen wipers e89 2016?

[Fox2000]

Hi folks
Still getting to grips with the e89 ‘distinctiveness’. My cracked alloy and rusty discs/callipers aside I have another challenge. The wipers need changing but the curvature of the screen on the passenger side is quite big. I hear some wipers don’t work well with that. Could anyone tell me what wipers they have found to be best?
Thx for your help

Honestly just go OEM. They cost more but they’re guaranteed to be a perfect fit.

The most convincing advice I've read is to buy OE from your AD. Expensive, but they fit and work.

I fell for 'Support your local trader' and wasted money. Then went to Halfords and bought Bosch's best, driver's with a spoiler, and they're not bad, but not very good. So, when I can brace myself to spend £50+ on something for which everyone else charges less than half that, I'm going to my local AD.

That said, whatever the blades, good windscreen cleaning's essential, apparently. (I must mention this to 'my' Romanians.)

Where do you get OEM from, please?

Ditto..tried Bosch..OK but BMW own branded version much better..expensive but if you drive when it rains then...

BOSCH - with spoiler, no issues whatsoever about £8 each from a local motor factor

So i decided to go with the BMW part £50 for a pair from a bmw dealer in Scotland a bit cheaper than my local dealer and free delivery.

BMW dealer. Worth trying a few different ones, cos some like to penetrate you more than others.

I live in Devon but find Cotswold BMW are much better prices, including delivery.

I ordered on eBay..supplier is parks motor group in Glasgow.

The convention, I think, is to use OE for stuff that comes direct from a BMW AD and OEM for the same stuff that comes from elsewhere, primarily because the latter's often cheaper.

BMW dealership. Nothing else fits as good, unless you don't mind having the last inch of the passenger wiper sitting off the screen (Bosch too). Regretted not going straight to the dealership as wasted a lot of money in the process.
