Wiper blades Bosch or Trico
Personally I have used almost every premium brand but prefer Bosch Icon blades on my truck.
I just installed new brake pads and rotors all around, oil and filter change, new bosch icon wiper blades, and new oem rubber floor mats. The car runs and drives great and everything works as it should including the sunroof, heated and power leather seats, satellite radio, windows and mirrors, etc.
Bosch Icons. Hands down the best
The blades at the dealer are the same price as the bosch (about $18 each) and actually fit, I think they are a great blade current set has been on the car for more than a year and still wipes like new.
The Rain-X ones are better, I've used both. Supposedly the PIAA Super Silicone are the bees knees, but I hate framed designs. They recently started making frameless ones so one day I'll try those. Currently I'm on Trico Force blades and they have been the best I've had so far. I have only had them about 2 months now though so that could change.
I have had both, I think the Rain-X are a bit better, though the Bosch aren't bad. the Bosch seemed to have a bit too much stiffness, didn't clear the center of the path as well.
I've used Bosch Icons for 2 years and they never fell apart.
Bosch, I have been told are awesome, so I might use those next myself.
I run a parts store and so far it seems Trico Neoform are my favorite out of the bunch, the rain-x repel/latitude have a clip style that eventually lifts in the middle after the blades have 'broken in' and cause a giant streak down the middle. I live in new england and also park outside, and had a set of neoforms make it through two winters. just my two cents!
I went to the dealer they replaced them since i picked up the car a few weeks ago and one of the wipers smears again. Seems like these wipers are crap.
