Wiper blades MICHELIN or ANCO

The Michelin guardian beam blades they sell are super cheap and seem like pretty decent quality. They come with an adapter that works with modern Subarus.

I’ve grabbed the Michelin wiper blades at Costco less than half the cost of cheap blades from Supercheap. And they lasted me 4 years from the old pair.

The michelin they sell at costco fits but you have to use the adaptor. Tricky at first to use but works great.

I just bought ANCO E-26-M and E-18-M wipers. They seem to work really well in the cold weather so far.

I have had excellent experiences buying the Michelin brand beam-style wiper blades on sale at Costco. Decent prices and the wipers do an excellent job. I replace mine every 15-18 months.

I'm surprised Costco hasn't dumped Michelin for Bosch branded wipers.

Tried a few Costco Michelin and whatever the dealer put on, all terrible quality.

Michelin wiper blades are horrible.

I paid multiple times that last time and they are streaking a few months later. These are Michelins.

I purchased Michelin Optimum+ Ceramic Beam 26”/16” just the other day. I chose them because I wanted ceramic silicone and the Michelin were a great price at $15 each. After putting the “right” adapter on that fit the button hole, that’s when I found out that the Trax’s wiper arm isn’t the correct length for these blades. The space between the button hole and the end is really small whereas the bracket on the blade and the photo in the instruction pamphlet show that the space should be over 1” to accommodate most of the bracket. The blade “fit” and snapped in, but I could tell it wasn’t right. There was too much play and the arm could separate from the blade by just bending the blade. Also the Trax’s arm is curved on the bottom, fitting perfectly into the OEM blades. Michelin’s website said that the 26” blade would fit. Oddly though, it said the passenger side was 14” instead of 16”.
