Wiper blades MICHELIN or OEM Honda
I have had good experience with Michelin silicone from Walmart.
Pros: good experience
The michelin ones they sell are pretty good and come with adapters so that they fit pretty much any arm. I'm in a '19 so I don't know if they switched arms going into Gen 6 but they work fine on mine, and about 2-3 times a year they go on sale from 9.99 to 6.99. I buy an extra set and keep them in the trunk.
Pros: pretty good, universal fit
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
The Michelin blades that CostCo sell fit the Polestar great.
Pros: great fit
Michelin Guardian Hybrid Wiper Blade, often $6.99 on sale.
Pros: often on sale
Your new car should absolutely come with OEM wiper blades that allow you to replace the rubber part.
You get the little blade rubber inserts for way dirt cheap, I think it's like 7 or 8 bucks per blade, maybe less depending on the size. It can be a little fiddly to get em in some times, but I think the actual wipers are pretty good quality, so it's worth it to me to keep the oem blades, and get the replacement rubber.
Pros: good quality, dirt cheap
Cons: fiddly to get em in
Vehicle:
Honda

All I can say is I'm pretty sure the Michelin branded ones from Costco don't work for our cars.
Cons: don't work for our cars
I'm done buying wiper blades at Costco. Garbage every time. Fooled me thrice. Though, I think I was buying the Michelin blades that went on sale occasionally. Squeaking pieces of shit from the get go.
Cons: garbage quality, squeaking issues
My OEM wipers were TERRIBLE. Worse OEM wipers ever. Got the Michelin wipers from Costco on sale... EVEN WORSE than OEM!! But I will admit, they are much better now about a year after installing them.
Pros: much better now
Cons: worse than OEM
just changed out the wiper blades on my 2004 Dodge Stratus SE and was surprised to see the new Michelin Optimum + blades missing a spot about the size of a fist in the middle of the passenger blade towards the end of its arc. I adjusted the blades, repositioned them, took them on and off, but nothing. I wound up putting on my old pair of blades, some Rain-X not sure what model, and even with some streaks no missed spots.
Cons: missing spot in arc
Vehicle:
Dodge Stratus
