I can't remember the exact size but the wipers for a late E30 are 2" longer & fit fine.

The very latest highlines were fitted with 22 inch wipers instead of the usual 18 inch. I remember AndyS saying he had fitted E30 22 inch wipers to his six which gave a larger swept area, see following thread:

What are the best size wipers for the car, the original ones are too small, and the wipe area is not that extensive.

I was wondering what other's of you have tried. I wasn't after the longest, just the most suited to the car.... Has anyone tried 2 different sizes. as sometimes this is the best compromise if the space does not allow for it (Which is what I have on my other car)
