vs
Wiper blades OEM Subaru or Goodyear
Reviews
I only ever used Subaru blades on my 2011, for 10 years in Upstate, NY, winters. My 21 is on the second set of OE blades (installed under warranty) and they're also good quality. As others said - they're a competitive price and good quality so I see no reason to use something else.
Pros: good quality, competitive price, durable
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I just buy the OEM blades from Subaru. They seem to be good quality and the price is comparable to a higher end Trico blade I would normally buy anyways.
Pros: good quality, comparable price
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
I just go to the Subaru dealership to get OEM blades. They're pretty good for the price !
Pros: pretty good for the price

I might be the only idiot who uses the dealer Subaru OEM blades. They are guaranteed for a year and I walk back in at month 11.5 and am usually able to get the dealership to warranty replace.
Pros: guaranteed for a year

Subaru
I’ve never had better blades in my 18 than the OEMs. Anything else need a clunky adapter, and none of them have worked as well.
Pros: OEM blades superior
Cons: aftermarket need adapter, aftermarket worked less well
Vehicle:
Subaru
The Subaru ones are the ones I’ve found to work the best. They last a good while and fit the windshield the best.
Pros: work the best, last a good while, best fit
Coscto sells some Goodyear wipers that do fit. They come with several different fittings for different wiper arms designs. The trouble is the fitting that works with the R32's aero wipers is about half an inch taller than OEM and they look like poo. On the plus side they're only $8 per blade.
Pros: cheap, different fittings included
Cons: taller than OEM, bad look

When I replaced them on my truck I hate to say this, they sucked. Streaks, chatter etc. I made sure they were installed correctly, very clean glass and rubber and I still had issues.
I switched to Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady Wiper Blades and they have worked great.
Pros: worked great
Cons: streaks, chatter
Hopefully the Goodyears listed aren't similar to the ones Costco used to sell. Those blades were junk. The Michelin blades that Costco now sells have been good so far.
Pros: Michelin blades good
Cons: Goodyear blades junk
Vehicle:
Honda
Not sure all brands quality, but I've had worst experience in Goodyear one.
Cons: worst experience
