    Looks like BFG is making wiper blades.
    No I'm not using them and not convinced to use them yet. Just sharing;

    the tires are proven by so many miles in the rough. it works, but one can argue if they are really the best.
    they are onto making money, think about it, you have dedicated wiper manufacturer for decades, do you think they will come now and reinvent the wheel?
    at US$80 a pair, I can buy 8 pairs from walmart every 6 months and still be cheaper.

    These better be $68 better than the $12 I'm currently paying for Costco/Michelin wipers.

    Love to see a video how they perform.

    I really love Bosch wipers. I was very happy with Bosch Icon and this time I'm using Bosch Envision. Envisions seem to clean water really well and didn't had a chance to test on a good snow storm yet to see them perform without building ice.

    RainX Latitude was the worst I've experienced. After wiping water there was a mist kind of thing for about 1second or so. Really annoying.

    Just buy silicon wipers, they last way longer, squeak less, are better in a wider range of temperatures, and leave behind a water resistant film. They might be more pricey and a little hard to find but its worth it.

    I agree with Trekker, I recently switched to silicon wipers, found on Amazon and I’m very happy with the performance over the other types. Very quite and they work much better than the Bosch and RainX I’ve used in the past.
