I have been running PIAA silicone wipers and Bosch Icon's. 2 of my favorite wipers available for any car.

 

whats the price diff between rainx and bosch? i know rainx you can get the front two and rear easily from walmart, menards, and many other places for around 10 each. i dont know the pricing for bosch ones, maybe that will help him decide!

 

Just get the Rain X Latitude I mean when you think of Rain X you think of what? Products that make water not bother your windsheild, when you think Bosch what do you think? I mostly think of my GTI lol but then I think of Spark Plugs.

 

I ran the Icons on my Evo and several other cars. They've always worked really well. Nice smooth action, cleans well and stays planted to the windscreen at speed.

 

Buy the cheapest you can find and change them every 6K.

 

I use the OEM......I have had 2 sets in 72k miles and they have never let me down. The second set I got for free from Mitsubishi for getting an inspection, local dealer had a special at the time.

I will probably buy them when this set finally goes but it still wipes streak free.

 

Please tell me that's not how you made your decision on a pair of wiper blades. Bosch is a very reputable company and makes quality parts, including a lot of wideband o2 sensors

 

k so its down to Rainx and Bosch!

 

What would it matter? Some people choose based on cost some on referral others on Brand name, Whirlpool makes good washers and dryers doesn't mean I'm gonna buy a car they make.

Anyways no the reason I chose the RainX is because its what the Auto Zone guy suggested. But with people saying RainX and Bosch why not let the fact that one company is KNOWN for the variety of products be the deciding factor.

 

I work at Napa Autoparts and have been for 3 years now, and I recommend the Bosch blades. Bosch is also the OE manufacturer of wiper blades on VW, Audi, and even some BMW's. They are a very good blade and from what I've had experience with they outlast and outperform the RainX blades. I'm not bashing on you or anything, just my .02

 

Don't worry I didn't take it personal, I got recommended the RainX latitude so I used them, had great experience with them so I see no need to change. I'm sure the Bosch are just as good but if it ain't broke don't fix it...unless it makes you go faster lol.

 

They are more aerodynamic

 

I have the Bosch evolution it's like the icons , it was buy one get one at strauss auto. It works fine and it's called evolution a plus . Lol, not sure what the difference with the icons coz they look the same to me.

 

Careful some people might believe you lol

 

I have the Bosch Icon and love them. Anyone know what size the rear wiper is?
