Wiper blades rainx or OEM Volvo
I love rainx wipers
I got RainX wipers at Princess Auto. Great blades and well priced. The Costco Michelin ones are garbage
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.
2018 XC90 - assembled (I think) in Belgium. Some minor annoyances - wipers don't seem to adequately clear water on one side (as if not pressed against glass tight enough) but they are all one big assembly so needed to replace both stalks entirely because the washer nozzles are integrated in the wipers themselves -- just too complex a design.
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.
A lot of people saying OEM. I think this is where I\u2019d disagree going OEM for Lexus. The wipers that came with my 25 RX suck. I got the car in January and I already need new ones. The RainX silicon ones last way longer and are way better IMO.
