I like the PIAA SiTech wipers. I have PIAA SuperSilicones on all my other cars. They've been way more durable and dependable than any other brand I've used. I've managed 5 years of service out of a set on one of my cars that sits outside all the time....
I didn't like the OEM Tesla blades, becuase they couldn't even last a single PacNW rainy season... The only thing I didn't like about the SiTech, was that I didn't know you couldn't replace the wiper inserts like my other PIAA blades. But it's been well over a year, and they are still going strong, after many, many rain storms.

PIAA SiTech FTW. Nothing terribly wrong with the OEM Tesla wipers, but they don't perform as smoothly in light rain - at least in my experience.
