Default Michelin Stealth Hybrid wipers on RX

Just wondering if anyone have personal experience with using Michelin Stealth Hybrid wipers on the 1st gen RX.
Do they work well such as wipe clean/no streak noise and longivity?
The reason I want to try is because the OEM blades are rusting out due to age and these are cheap at Costco.

Thanks.

I bought replacement wipers from an online Lexus dealer when I ordered some other parts, so shipping was effectively free. They were not too expensive, and the refill inserts are economical. I also think the quality is top notch as well.

Thanks for your reply, but it's not economical to order parts in Canada as much as it is in US.
Also the inserts are around $9-10 cad and like I said, the blades are rusting out after being use for 17 yrs.
The blades from Costco is $9.49 + tax so I was just wondering if anybody tried it before and how well they do.
