At 5,000 miles I replaced the factory 4Runner blades with Trico Neoform beam blades (a B grade wiper in my book) and they still perform like brand new blades 10,000 miles later, including having been in the Florida heat followed by Connecticut ice, snow, and salt slurry.
Pros: perform like new, durable
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
Mileage: 10000 km
Trico wiper blades are pretty great in a heavy downpour.
Pros: great in heavy downpour
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
They've been screeching like banshees when they move. I washed the blades down with a cloth and WD40. They're back to quiet and I won't drive off a cliff due to the uncomfortable noise any more.
Pros: back to quiet
Cons: screeching like banshees
The Bosch Icon blades are just as good if not better and cost 1/2 the price.
Pros: good performance, lower price
Bosch Icons. I’ve had them on my previous three cars. More than $25 each (but there are discount codes). Better than OEM, last longer, too. They’re like tires, more expensive, but worth the price. Those are the only two things I don’t keep OEM.
Pros: better than OEM, last longer
Cons: more expensive
FCP has a set of Bosch wipers for $23 (mk4). That includes both wipers and they’re different lengths.
Pros: includes both wipers
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Or you can get the Bosch Aerotwins as a set appropriate for your car off of Amazon.
Pros: appropriate for your car
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
2006 NC miata. Just replaced my wipers from whatever the previous owner had on them. Got 18 inch michelins, but I noticed this gap where the wiper doesn’t rest on the glass.
I’m pretty sure I finally managed to install correctly. But maybe not?
FWIW, assuming it’s not my faulty installation, this gap did not exist with the old wipers.
Cons: leaves gap on glass
Vehicle:
Mazda
I used to use Icons and they were garbage. I switched to a silicone blade rain x and they are great.
Pros: silicone blade great
Cons: Icons were garbage
