Factory wipers are Valeo. I like Rain X Latitude. Bosch ICON is also good but pricey

The Icon looks cleaner than the other wipers, cause it has a cover for the hooks, Rain X doesn't.

Whens the best time to change them out or when do you change them? Every year, every 2 or when the wipers start to become crappy or when it starts to peel.
