I usually get Bosch through FCP. No complaints here. But I don't have experience with anything else. Maybe someone has experience with a variety of blades and can comment.

A great wiper for snow & Ice is the Trico Ice Extreme from any one of the auto parts stores.
I wind up changing the wipers on both cars every six months in Socal due to the constant beating from the sun. Rubber is rubber under any conditions https://bit.ly/3FTb6C2

Summer, go for the Bosch.

Does the Trico require the addition of a piece they come with to attach to arm?

Direct fit, just like OEM:

Thanks Q

…only posting the obvious if one doesn’t have an issue with the oe wiper blades.

.

BTW, if you’re a BMW CCA member…don’t forget to ask for the CCA discount.

FYI…the f06/f12/f13 has two wiper blade part nbrs…you can also check for part # 61612458020. I don’t know what the difference is…but the parts person at you local BMW dealership should be able to tell you the difference.

#6 in the diagram below:

I’ve always used the Bosch Aerotwin on my f10 and f06. Appears to be the same as the genuine wipers, just with the Bosch logo.

I just placed Bosch Icons for my new to me F06. The "OE" version fits our cars.
