Whats up fellas...

was wondering if anyone has or have tried either of these blades and which do they prefer. If Im gonna spend $42 on stupid wiper blades I'd like an opinion or two lol. thanks alot

 

Ive used the Rain-X ones on my old car, they work really well, no streaks and they last for a long time. I bought some Bosch Marathon's which appear to be a lot like the Icon's but are 5 bucks cheaper and are sold at Walmart. They work well too, I don't have any complaints. I guess time will tell if they hold up the first time they are run through some freezing conditions. When I picked them up I noticed that Walmart sells a Michelin brand curved blade design wiper for like 12 bucks. They looked to be a little beefier than the Marathons but I decided to go with Bosch because I've had good luck with their old style wipers.

 

I used bosch and a autozone wiper for the passenger side and the bosch started streaking within a month. The autozone one still worked great. To find out according to what a employee said about autozone brand is its actually made by rain X and its cheaper. So i usually buy them as they last 2-3 months.

 

I have a set of those Bosch marathon wipers an love them. The wipers they replaced was Michelin brand curved blade that I liked too but want to try the Bosch.

 

I just put on the Rain X wiper blades. Love them! did really great in the snow we had yesterday

 

thanks for the input guys !! went with the rain-x latitudes. had a wintery mix this afternoon, they worked great no streaks n kept the windsheild real clear. paired up with the rain-x washer fluid im ready for the sloppy stuff lol... thanks again

 

If anyone else wants an opinion I have had Trico Neoforms on my blazer for close to 2 years and they havent failed yet. I live in western NY and we get some heavy snow. I have also went mudding with them and they are GREAT! Granted they are like 30 bucks a pop up here, I swear by these ones.
