I know someone will recommend the hingeless blades, so here is my warning. I've used Reflex blades in the winter before. You know how sometimes a normal/summer blade will build up ice around the rubber blade? Well with a Reflex, this ice envelopes the entire wiper and keeps growing. By the time the car made it home, there was a good 1/4" of ice all around the wiper. Luckily there were flat spots on the ice that allowed snow to be cleared from the windshield.
I use standard CT winter blades with the rubber boot, but I seal the ends of the boot before installing them. I had a case in the past where a freak warm spell melted some snow and water got in the boot. That made the blades useless as the water was trapped in there and would always freeze up the hinges.
