You can bump up the length of both wipers. I believe it's 19 on the
passenger and 20 on the driver? That may be off but whatever stock is you
can get one that is 2 inches longer and one that is 1 inch longer. Keep in
mind this is going to put a bit more strain on your wiper motor and stud so
if they have issue may not be good option.

I have also found that the wipers that use their curvature become
completely useless in short time. Stick to ones that have the arms in my
experience.

Finally, the best way to see well in the rain is clean your windshield!
These big ol' windows hold a lot of dirt!
