    What's the best wiper blade you've found? Summer? Winter? All season?

    PIAA Super Silicone blades. Not cheap, about $20-22 a blade, but work amazing and are very long lasting. My first set of them lasted 3 years And my second set lasted 3 years as well.

    I'll never run a Bosch blade again (Icon, or Excel). They didn't last and were crazy expensive. I'll also never run a Goodyear Assurance blade either. Currently running them 'cause I was cheap and it's a very noisy blade and the added wind resistance causes them to flutter at highway speeds when "off".

    I like the Michelin from Walmart and other various places. They are basically just rubber blades with a place to attach them to the wiper arm. Since they have no metal on them they don't really stick to the windshield during winter and are probably the best blades I have ever used. They aren't that expensive either.

    That's what started this. I saw the Michelins at WalMart and wondered if they are any good..

    They hold up well. I don't recall ever having problems with them. They are like super squeeges lol.

    A little lateā€¦

    Rain-X or Trico (spelling) make single beam, silicone wipers.

    My last set of Trico lasted three years and my new set wipe incredible.

    I would say that if you purchase any single beam type wiper made from a silicone based material they should work better than any of the other type of wipers.

    post what you did or what you do !
