I need to replace mainly the rear blade as its very noisy, its probaly the one from factory (12/2016)

Bosch is probably oem for some model bmws, you mean OE.
If you bought standard Bosch ones from an auto store, did you get the right size?
I've used Michelin wipers and change them every summer on my e82, they "updated" the wipers this past year as the plastic connectors/adaptors (they're universal blades for many cars) were clearly different and this time although I bought the same size, the blade seems to be a few mm short on the bottom and I can tell from the almost permanent streak the previous ones left.
I'd say go with what works best, and last the longest but I've found the rubber plasticizes after about a year in my climate and the wipers start to make noise and leave streaks.
