I run what it says to, if you tried to run a longer one on the passenger side it would hang off the windshield most likely.

Also while we are talking wiper blades avoid Bosch like the plague... I put some on 8 days ago, by the second day the clip on the passenger one had broken and on the highway it started scooting back and forth on the rod and stuttering across the windshield.
Considering it was 60F in Indiana yesterday for this (so far) pathetic excuse of a winter... lol. Watch, now that I've said it we're gonna get -45 windchills and 6 feet of snow. Bahaha.

Also, 5 years on a set of blades is ridiculously awesome. I change mine yearly, almost out of habit instead of necessity. When I used Bosch, back when I was young and naive, I had to change them out every six months because they got so bad, and I thought it was the norm lol. Then I tried RainX and my life was changed. Now I'm using Tricos.



Yeah, I don't think there's much room for play on the passenger side judging from the streaks. I wonder if I can fit a larger blade on the driver's side. We'll see.
I LOL'd.

I've run at least 4 sets over the years, on 2 Gen 8 Impalas, and am VERY satisfied.

My 1 way commute is 68 miles, so I'm at about 140 miles a day, with errand side trips a couple times a week, and I am regularly over 90 and over 100 on the highway.

Another LOL.

Just bought what Rock Auto said to; 22A drivers, 21A passenger side for my ‘16 Limited.

I noticed that on winter, the passenger upper end seemed to feel neglected by the defroster, running 22A Icons on noth sides.

Gonna try the ‘Rock Recommended’ length this time, and give the passenger side some defroster love.

But what I have still don’t have issues yet worth changing then, so it may take onto November to habe an opinion.
