Most recent Kia Optima models typically come equipped with 26-inch wiper blades for the driver's side and 18-inch blades for the passenger's side. It's common to overlook replacing wiper blades as part of routine maintenance, but it is a crucial aspect of vehicle safety. Experts suggest changing them annually, particularly if you frequently use them in snowy or rainy conditions. A standard set of blades can usually be purchased for $26 - $30 and can be easily installed in around 10 minutes. Premium options are available for those willing to spend more, allowing for longer intervals between changes, possibly extending to a couple of years.
In 2019, the driver's side wiper for the Kia Optima should measure 26 inches, while the passenger's side wiper should be 18 inches in length.
