Yes. I just bought some to get me through the Winter. 20" (500mm) on the driver and 18" (450mm) on the passenger.

Thanks. Its raining cats and dogs in Baltimore. 44,000 miles and I think it is time for some new wipers.

Same thing happened to me when Ernesto rolled through. Luckily I was ready today when the flash flooding came through.

I got 10" of rain in my area last week. Luckily, my neighborhood is X100 (flood once every 100 years). Unfortunately I'm surrounded by flood plain, so I basically live on an island during a tropical storm or hurricane. Although they closed Little Creek last Friday, I wouldn't have been able to get to work anyway. All the roads leading out of my neighborhood were flooded and unpassable. Actually Ernesto was worse then Hurricane Isabelle in 2003.

how about the rear wiper? Stupid AutoZone said the Z doesnt have a rear blade lol

I'm pretty positive the rear is 18" like the passenger, but since I rarely use it I don't remember 100% from when I replaced it last year. I'm pretty sure the manual in the store that carries the blades will have the info for you.

Even if you don't use them, they wear out at about the same rate due to sun, dirt, and minerals.

If you're going to the trouble, might as well replace all 3

I use 18" in the back for better coverage

What brand wiper blade is good to get? I've only ever used OEM or Rain X. Any other brands to try?

Hands down Bosch Icons. I tried the Rain X a year ago, got noisy over time, streaked, and even the rear fell off once upon a time. The Icons are quiet, durable, and they have their own locking mechanism to prevent issues.
