Rep Power: 251 rubber wiper blades
been a year and 2 months and my wiper blades arent just cutting it no more. its smearing the rain/water over my front windshieild. so i want to ask are their any other options besides OEM that i can replace my wiper blade rubbers with? im not talking about the entire wiper blade assembly, just the actual rubber blade.
thanks
thanks

Rep Power: 287 might also want to try wiping the blades down with a lil rubbing alochol pad.. oil and other fluids from the road stick to the blade and render them prettymuch worthless.. i give mine a wipe whenever i use them..

Rep Power: 335 I got cheap *** ones at target and they suck
spend the money on some good name brand ones.
I might get the silicone piaa carbon fiber blades from Pep boys
then afterward you but the blade refills

Rep Power: 346 I bought some Motomaster Silicone wiper blades and they suck assneck. I've heard good things about Bosh, PIAA, Tripple Edge, and OEM refills from Honda.

Rep Power: 251 what part numbers should i be looking for when looking for just the rubber wiper blade (not the whole assembly)?
or does it go by size? if so what size for driver and what size is it for passenger? civic 03 coupe if it matters
