Need to replace the front wiper blades, anyone have any good recommendations?

Thanks in advance

John

Michelin "Stealth" best blade I've used and very quiet, not cheap though.

Finding the Bosch Areo blades to be holding up well at the moment. Had 2 sets of genuine LR ones before that and they were and didnt last long at all  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

I`ve used the Bosch aeros for ages now, on various cars....no complaints. Steve.

Second Bosch Aeros

Or just replace the rubbers  Steve.

I saw something one on YouTube about silicone wiper blades, lasting much longer than rubber and much better but never tried them.

Anyone else tried the silicone blades? 2016 RRS SVR Estoril Blue

If we all point our RR's in the same direction and accelerate at the same time can we turn back time?

are silicon ones grey? If yes then they are fine/good

I tried silicone ones a few years back when I had my FTO (group buy) Great wipers but didn`t last any longer than any others. Steve.

I've used PIAA silicon wipers on all my vehicles now for a few years as I've found them to outlast my previous Bosch ones, they are much quieter (no squealing and end of travel/direction change clicking) and the silicon coating left does help the rain run off. On the RRS it's the PIAA Si Tech - expensive, but I really do think worth it. I'd guess most silicon types may be the same, but I've had good performance from PIAA so stick with them. 13MY Range Rover Sport Autobiography SDV6 - mine
14MY Range Rover Evoque Dynamic SD4 Black Pack - wife's
99MY Defender 90 TD5, Soft Top Conversion - my toy, and bairns favourite

Like Insiorc, I also use the PIAA Silicone tech flat aero wiper blades, and I feel that they out perform the Bosch Aero wipers in every way, and for me last longer. (Mind you they are much more expensive. ) John
