I have tried the Rain-X. They did not work too well on my Z - something about the curve of the windshield and the wiper caused it not to sit on the window correctly. It left big wide patches and nothing I did seemed to help. I went back to stock. Too bad, because the Rain_X worked great on the Maxima.

Bosch Icon ROCK!

I use Bosch's top wiper, can't remember what it's called, but it's lasted at least a couple years in Phoenix so far which is a lot to ask for as most will crack and become worthless within months. Same thing the guys have to deal with in extreme cold's basically.

I think that's what I'm using.

I’ve had good luck with TRICO. The "exact fit" series insures that you do NOT get a one-type-fits-all wiper with a bunch of adapters.

Bosch. I'm on my 2nd set on the Z after 5 years. They have lasted longer than any other blades I've ever tried.

Bosch or Rain X.

I have used both but the Bosch became dry and lost flexibility sooner.

i had rain-x on my previous car (05 tiburon) and my gf has them on her beetle.. they work great.. although i haven't had experience on the z yet (using the stockers that came with it when i purchased it 3 weeks ago). I think that the design of the bosch and rain-x are the most reliable so prolly either one would be the correct answer

doesn't matter. you should change them every 6 months anyway so what it boils down to is what are you willing to spend for something that pretty much does the same thing

bosch icon is very similar to the valeo, both very good wipers... some of the best money can buy.

My passenger wiper doesn't always get the edges perfect.

Why replace every 6 months if they work perfect? That's the whole point of buying "premium" wiper blades. That's why you see multiple people in here saying they've used the blades upwards of 2-3 years and they still work just like they did when new.

I bought Anco replacement blades. They work pretty good, but they leave a imprint/line on my windshield for some odd reason when I use them (at the exact area, where it fully stops when extending). But it washes off when I wash the car. Other then that works fine.
