Which wiper blades do you like the best?

 

Bosch, I had those on my other cars but recently bought the rain x latitude wipers because they were on sale and they are garbage, picking up another set of Bosch when they are on sale

 

The Aero frameless ones on eBay. They're frameless and got them for $13.63. The frameless ones I got from Nissan were absolute garbage!

 

"they are" not "there"

 

Sorry my boston accent forces me to type it how I would say it, I fixed it for u proper biznitches

 

Here in the northeast, it seems that whatever you get lasts about 9-10 months, plus a couple months of thinking, "I gotta get new wiper blades!"

 

I bought some Rain X latitude wiper blades. These are their premium blades about $14 a piece. They are curved to fit the windshield and do an amazing job.

 

I bought them because I heard good things, maybe I got a bad set or something but they leave all streaks

 

Get the premium line at any auto parts store.. It should work as good as oem. Stay away from the cheapo budget low price option. Very noisy.

 

I tried a set of Goodyear blades from Costco. They were cheap, so I figured why not. They were really terrible, not worth the savings. I've had good luck with Bosch and Rainex.

The 9-10 months comment is right. The pits in the windshield from all the sand and grit don't help the blades last any longer.

 

Bosch ICONS for the win

 

I just had the dealer install new rubber inserts to my OEM wipers for my 2013 Max SV, not too expensive and I keep the OEM look ~ if that is worth something?

Did I waste my money? time will tell.

 

Same here. They were good at first but they wore out too fast.

 

Regularly apply Rain-X and you won't need wipers

 

Clearly you dont live in the north east. Between acid rain and alot of other crap that gets on the car, rain x would need to be applied daily. Good wipers are a must. Buy good wipers and you save money on rain x .

 

or just spend the extra $1 and get the rain-x windshield fluid. That works well too.

 

Clearly I DON'T live in the NE...since my profile says NC.

 

😂😂😂

 

The Trico wipers sold at O'Reilly are excellent!

 

Bosch Icons. A little expensive but very good quality.

 

I ended up getting the Bosch Icons

 

This.

 

Lol

 

On the last service (30k), got the framed OEM replacements. Lots better than the originals.

Have a pair of Trico wipers on the Land Cruiser and they rock!

 

I have just over 17,000 miles on my 2013 and the blades are still perfect. I got the car at the end of May brand new and I'm still on the originals, which don't streak and do a fairly remarkable job.
Back when I had my Accord, this was a popular debate on the forums. After much testing (and some spirited discussions on the forums), I found that the best blades for the Accord were the cheap OEM blades. I tried Rain-X, Bosch, Goodyear (from CostCo), and probably more and within a few months, they were all streaky. When I replaced with OEM's, I went nearly a year with no problems.
Your experience may vary, but until I decide to test out other blades, I'll probably stick with OEM as they've lasted through lots of rain during the summer and fall, a horrific winter with lots of snow and arctic cold, and a spring that has, so far, been mostly freezing without a problem. Heck, I'm not sure I'll need new blades before next winter.
Back in the day, I'd religiously swap blades before and after nasty Chicago winters, but now only swap them out when I get streaks.
Now that I have a Crimson Black Max, I'm way more **** about my car always being dirty.

 

At 30k the Dealer replaced my Latitudes with whatever the Dealer uses, at 36k they replaced them for free. They were streaking. So with the free for life oil change I got the free replacements. Next is tires - they have Hankook s12's for the same prices as Tire Rack. Rear brakes also.

 

bought the expensive icons. they lasted just as long or maybe shorter than the OEM blades. left me SOL in this crazy winter unable to clear snow without it sticking to the blades and causing major visibility issues. no more bosch for me.

 

How long can you store them without putting them on the car ?

 

Dealer put new ones on for free, cant find any brand name on them, so probably cheap, but i change them yearly either way. even if they charge you its like 30 bucks or something around there i think.
