Windshield wiper lift in rain and possible cures
My windshield wipers tend to lift up and not clear the rain at anything over 65mph (very distracting) so I bought a couple of the Porsche wipers that have a spoiler on them that's supposed to help them hug the glass better. Only thing I notice is that they are relatively heavy. I wonder it the wiper motor can handle them? They came off of a newer 928. They may have been installed on the driver's side only? Anyone got experience with these?
At the same time, I wonder if I made a mistake in buying these...since there are some new wipers on the market that have built in wind spoilers that may be lighter/better. However, I've not seen them and don't know if they would look out of place on the 968. Anybody seen the new ones?

BTW, the GTS 928 wiper blades with the air foil will not fit the 938. I'd look at the new blade with the built in foil as a replacement. I think it may be a Bosche but not sure. I still get blade lift at 75mph on the 968 but the air foiled 928 blade fixed the sharks.
I like a clean windshield.
