I have a pair of PIAA Super Sporza blades...They were pretty pricey,but had them for over a year and they still work great. I also have pairs of BOSCH ICONS, prices are very competitive with the PIAAs ($40-$50 for a pair) and they work just as good. You also have the option to go with SilBlades and they have like a 7 year warranty ( i can be wrong on this) or go with cheaper blades......

I used those new fangled wipers without the metal frame on my last car. Bosch makes a set, so does Rain-X. I like the alot, and they seemed to last a long time. They aren't cheap though, coming in around $17-21 per side. I agree that the Bosch MicroEdge do wear down quicker, but you get a good wiper blade in the meantime. They're down in price too, around $13 each for our trucks. My stock blades have lasted me 14.7K miles and 1.5 years, and are still perfect.

I like Rain-x blades. I bought some at wallyworld cause that's all they had in my size, but I was really impressed with how well they worked and how long they lasted compared to other blades I've used. They do seem to come of the windshield a little at fast highway sppeds however, at least on my truck.

I use silblades. i guess there made of silicone and have a 5 year warranty. Cost the same as the bosch micro something. 10 bucks a blade. So far, it works great but it squeaks just a bit when there is just fine mist. I just turn up the radio.
