oh boy, here come the responses :)

I just use Michelin wipers from Sam's Club. Otherwise I'd say stick with OEM... lately for our Subbie and my previous FJ Cruiser it seems OEM just works.

I've tried the Scrubblades before hoping that it wasn't just about the marketing hype... I was wrong. I guarantee someone else has a different opinion tho.

I live in Florida also and the OEM blades on every Jeep I've owned has held up better than any other I had to buy when they finally wore out. OEM for me.

The flat bargain blades seem to be the best IMO. I’ve tried all kinds, Bosch, Michelins, etc.

For years, I’ve used Rain-X blades as soon as the originals wear out. I had used a few other brands before I went with Rain-X and find Rain-X last years and clean the wind screen better than others I have used. They ain’t cheap but I like ‘em.

OEM or Trico Extended Life Beam Blades is what I usually run with and change out every year. Other blades like Rain-X, Micheline or Goodyear branded picked up in Wal-Mart, Costco or similar are alright for awhile but never seem to give steady good performance for a whole year driving season at least in my opinion..

No issues with the stock blades, just replaced my '20 original blades with stock/Mopar replacements from Rockauto - but I hardly turn them on.

I treat all of my windshields with Aquapel. Even on the near vertical surface of our Wrangler and JT windshields, the water beads and runs off at about 20mph. Especially great in heavy downpours or for nuisance/light rain during highway driving.

Note: Apply, wipe of with paper towels, buff with crumpled brown paper or newspaper to remove haze.

Hey All. I have finally had enough of the OEM blades. Can anyone recommend a great set of wiper blades for JT? THANKS!
Try Kimblade.com for some top grade wiper blades. They are made from a silicone compound instead of rubber. I used the same ones for 3+ years one one vehicle and just ordered some for the Gladiator I bought because those old blades were still working like new when I traded in the vehicle. They are not cheap but you get what you pay for.

I live in an area where the sun bakes everything. Michelin silicon kind seem to be holding up well.

I use these I can't tell how they last because none of the ones I've used before are worth a ?. Just put these on so ?‍♂. But the price is good even with shipping, especially if you order more than 1 pair.

I tried Scrubblades and they were not that good and didn't last long. I just buy them from Discount Tire so far they are the best that I have tried. Of course, my son works there and picks them up for me.
