Chris,

I use 21" for the driver's side, and 19" for the passenger side (stock is
18" for both).  You may need to adjust the wiper arm up or down on the
windshield to get the best clearing action without  going off the edge.
Right now I am using the stock size (16") rear wiper blade, I haven't
measured it but it looks like you can't go too much larger.

The larger front sizes were recommended by Go Westy! on their web site.
Tried them and liked them!

Why do they call it a fixed income, when mine is always broke?
