My luck with windshield wipers has always been hit or miss. I just put on a new set of Bosch wipers and they're terrible, streak like crazy. I'm curious which brand you guys have had the best luck with on this car?

 

In my opinion, the rainx latitude wipers, which are kinda pricey, work best on ANY car. Yeah they cost like 20 a blade, but after using them for a while, you will definitely notice a difference, and they last forever and a day.

It was drizzling here in jersey last night, during a ride I was taking and I can literally see the beads of rain roll upwards towards the roof as I was driving with no wipers on.

Definitely worth the money, in my opinion

 

Get the Michelin's wiper at about $6-7 at Walmart. After 1 year, just replace it w/ the same. Nothing beats having a new set of wipers yearly.

 

I use silblades. Google them. 5 year no questions warranty. I used them on all my cars & I'm happy. The FL weather is really hard on blades. I have had to replace a few pairs, but they sent me brand new ones.

 

If you live in a state that gets a lot of rain, or where you have winter, you should replace your wipers every 6 months if you ideally want the best blade solution. That being said, I use Rain-X Latitudes after I read a consumer reports review on wiper blades that said they didn't lose any of their effectiveness after 6 months. There's a set of OE only wiper blades that performed better for streaks, but you can't buy those at a store or online, and they don't last as long.
Truthfully, I can't tell just how well my wipers work because my windshield is so damned pitted and worn out that it streaks anyhow.

 

Heard great things about Silblades too

 

I've gotten great results from Rain-X Latitude wipers. They work very well and last a long time. I have no experience with Silblades, so I can't compare the two.

 

Cool, I'll try those out next. Thanks guys!

I picked up a set of Trico blades for a steal this time around and they're definitely better than the Bosch, but still not perfect.

 

I got the napa brand and they are some of the best I've ever used. I live in Oregon where it rains pretty much all the time.
