Good Wipers?

Valeo (600 Series)
Recommend changing every 6 months. If you plan on waiting longer, to get more life out of them RainX Latitude seems to be the better choice.
I changed mine to Valeo's and bought a set of RainX Latitude's for the cold season...Texas doesn't get much snow, not around Ft. Hood anyway, mostly rain. I wanted the RainX for the colder months, so I will likely swap the Valeo's out in a few months.

When I had my Evo VIII I had PIAAs, those wipers were amazing...and they oughta be for how expensive they were though. Would I buy them again? Yeah. I have rain x on the Evo X though...
^lol. We bought a set of RainX in Montana once for our SUV. Didn't care for them much and switched back to PIAAs. They bead up water on your windshield for far longer than any other blade I've used. I'll try the Bosch at some point but I've had these PIAAs on for more than a year at this point and they still work pretty well.
ive had the same set of bosch icons since october of 2007 and they still are working really well. definitely will be buying them again when it comes time to replace them and would recommend them
RainX's top of the line wipers are pretty good and the right price.
My friend has the PIAA Silicone and they last a ridiculously long time, but there is a weird film/streak effect that I'm not a huge fan of.

When looking at the Bosch Evolution 17" wiper blade which fits the rear, people said that it's actually shorter than 17". If that was true, would the 18" work or is it too long?
