Get something that can take refills.

I really want to get some refillable blades- do you have any suggestions?

Hmmm... have the Bosch Icon and RainX blades always been that expensive? ~$30 per blade? That's crazy. I think I will probably just go with the Costco special... Michelin blades for $6-8 per blade.

So I got a set of these last year. What I noticed was that they starting lifting up at speeds above about 65ish. I thought maybe they were bad so got another set. Same result. My buddy also has an f150. He got a set and had the same issue. Just an fyi.

I have used the Costco Michelin blades on my previous vehicles (Expeditions)! they are quite decent wipers and tend to last a while! You can replace a lot of blades for $30-$60!

I haven't noticed that myself. Is this when the wipers are being used or is it happening when they are "tucked in"?

Bosch Icon 26” blades passenger and driver. No rubbing, clears much more, doesn’t look goofy. Seems like the size they should have used.

Been using Bosch Icons for as long as I can remember on every vehicle. But with any wiper, the most consequential thing you can do is keep the windshield clean and also clean the blade.
