Haven't seen a wiper blade thread yet this season, and my 2019 is ready for some new ones. Opinions? Go!

I use the Kimblade ones. I haven't tried them in the snow yet but they work great in the rain.

Michelin stealth ultras. Although the price seems to have doubled recently ??‍♂

Interesting, can you post a pic of them on?

I've always been a Rain-X fan, they even work in snow/ice conditions.

I installed 18" Trico "Ice" blades. They are great for winter weather, quite, low profile, and easy to install. They clean well, they do not streak. I went with 18" blades for a little better coverage.

I just installed a set of Bosch Envision wipers. That's been my go-to brand for years.

The OEMs wipers barely lasted a year, and that includes a 3 month break when I used dedicated winter wiper blades. As to the latter, I use Duralast wipers purchased at Autozone...and for the price, they've worked really well. Recommended.

I don't know what's the best. The Rain-X ones I got from Autozone though work just fine. They're also really easy to install, even for wiper blades.

I've really liked Icons but dead bugs ruin them quick. PIAAs have lasted the longest for me in the heat and sun down here. They don't wipe quite a cleanly as brand new Icons, but they last twice as long. The cost is about the same.

I tried to get a close up of the wiper blade part and it didn't turn out. If you look on their website you can see they have a little box type thing on the blade part.
