Not on the Camaro, but I have had good luck with the Trico Force blades. They work better than the Bosch Icons on my BMWs.

The OEM stuff worked the best, and more importantly, lasted the longest.... and by a demonstrable amount.

Costco has I think they are goodyear blades. They are a fair price and they kick butt.

Tried Napa's upper end one and now a Michelin Hybrid and both are noisy. Guess I'm heading to GM.

APPLY RAINX TO YOUR WINDSHIELD AND YOU WILL VERY SELDOM NEED TO USE YOUR WIPERS, THE STUFF WORKS. AS I TYPE THIS I JUST REALIZED THAT MY 2011 SILVERADO WITH 45,000 MILES STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL WIPER BLADES ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID.
SUNLIGHT IS WHAT KILLS RUBBER AND MY VEHICLES ARE ALL PARKED INSIDE.

Even tried those "best of the best" Raineater's on another Chevy and returned to OEM blades, they are just as good if not better and way cheaper.

Another vote for OEM. Tried Bosch and Rain X and neither came close.
