Default Need new wipers any suggestions

I need new wipers on my 98 gs400. I have looked at these new style wipers that are curved. Bosch is one company and they are called icon i beleive. They are expensive so I was wandering if they are worth it and if so which brand do you all suggest. Give me any suggestion that you all can think of. I want a all weather wiper

Personally on most all my vehicles, I stick with the factory ones. They last for a long time and arent like some of the cheap junk the auto stores sell. However, I have heard good things about the PIAA's too from other buddies of mine.

bosch icons 100%. Last longer than stock, wipe better than stock, anco, or rain x, and are cheaper than the PIAAs.

I have run Bosch and now have Michelin (from Target) and both have worked well for me. Regardless how long they last I replace them at the start of ever winter.
