mine last for 2 years then downcycle them to another car where they will last another 2 years(recycling)..I have had good luck with the trico blades too. I found that if I wipe the rubber down with a brake clean soaked paper towel once and a while they will work for a long time. I have run blades for over a year including Wisconsin winters.
I also recommend getting 24" for the driver side and 22 for the passenger side...
you will get a much bigger sweep with the 24" on the driver side
