Ok, with winter coming I am doing my pre-winter maintenance and am replacing my wipers. Last year I tried out the Reflex wipers from Crappy Tire and was very happy with them. What I wasn't happy about was the winter wiper"with Teflon" for the back. Total crap. Has anyone tried using a 16" Reflex on the back glass? They don't make a 15 as far as I can see. Otherwise what have you used that worked well ?

Mazda3 rear wiper works wonders from what i've been told, but if you don't wanna bother swapping the arms to adapt a more expensive blade, I know for a fact the Bosch Icon and PIAA Super Graphite wipers are great choices. A little pricier, but you do get what you pay for most times.
