Wiper blades rainx or OEM Subaru
I love rainx wipers
I got RainX wipers at Princess Auto. Great blades and well priced. The Costco Michelin ones are garbage
Switching to single beam wipers helped from the crappy oem segmented frame ones.
Did the same on mine and no issues. Used a wiper blade from RainX to match the front's Silicone Enduras
I live in New England and use Rain-X Weatherbeater blades(16",13",13"). This current set has been on for over a year and still going strong.
I bought some rain-x latitude blades and they seem decent.
I've put 2 sets of RainX wipers on my car in 55k miles, easy/fast/fits perfect. Apparently I got a crappy batch wiper of theirs because my drivers side despite being new, clean, with a mint windshield treated with rainx, still leaves streaks and doesn't wipe like the same RainX wiper I had on the car in the past, passenger side is fine.
It rained today and I noticed the blades only make contact with 1/2 the windshield. They are Rain-X Latitude so you can avoid them. The windshield just has too much curve for the blade.
Their wiper blades suck to in my experience.
I personally used Bosch on all my cars but I got the Rain X ones recently. Amazing in rainy weather, total ass for durability winter wise, they are already losing shape.
