I bought for about $75 a pair of Rain-x "Silicone Advantage" wiper blades.......in 2017.
They're still working today despite being on a daily driven, stored outside GMC Sierra. I don't know *when* they'll need to be replaced again, but it sure doesn't look like any time soon.????
And they have been through at least 2 if not 3 ice storms and 103°F weather in every summer. The only damage is a knick in the top part of one where an ice scraper hit it. That's all.
Ive tried a few brands, from bosch to some other named brands. The single bar/aero bar by RainX last the longest by far and do a good job.
I bought some Rain-X wipers at Wal-Mart and had no trouble putting them on.
RainX Latitude are the best! I drive 33k miles a year and I count on them. They make the rain bead on your windshield so it's so much easier to see in rain and snow! And yes, 26 front, 16 rear.
Typically, I run Rain-X Latitudes, they’re pricey but they work well and have lasted a while for me.
I’m currently running RainX wiper blades on my 13 Jetta with zero issues. Ran them on my old MK4 Jetta too.
I had a pair of Rain X blades, and they streaked a lot. Returned them for the Icons, never looked back.
'15 Legacy. Manual says 17" blade on passenger side but so far every one I've tried misses part of windshield. It's the 4" in the center of the blade which is making me think the curvature isn't quite right. I'm using Rainx brand.
Got the same issue with mine. They never clicked with the large j hook. If you push them they easily came out. Bad design. One came off while my wife was driving. Very unsafe.
I had a decent experience with rainX wipers, but they got streaky very fast even if they didn’t fail completely too quickly. They just pissed me off for months until I changed them.
