The front wiper blades on most 2016 Silverado models are 22 inches on the driver’s side and 20 inches on the passenger side, with a 12-inch rear blade if your truck has a rear wiper.
Wiper blade sizes can vary by cab configuration and trim level, and some heavy-duty variants use slightly different lengths. Below is a practical guide to the most common sizes for the 2016 Silverado lineup, along with guidance on how to confirm the exact blades for your specific truck.
Front wiper blades: standard sizes
The following sizes cover the front wipers for the majority of 2016 Silverado pickups. Use these as a baseline, but verify against your manual or current blades if you’re unsure.
- Driver’s side: 22 inches
- Passenger’s side: 20 inches
Concluding note: If your cab configuration differs or you’re replacing both blades, you’ll typically replace them with these lengths to maintain even coverage and proper contact with the windshield.
Rear wiper blade: when equipped
Not all 2016 Silverado models have a rear window wiper. If yours does, the rear blade is typically a single 12-inch length.
- Rear window blade: 12 inches (if equipped)
Concluding note: If your truck does not have a rear wiper, this size reference does not apply. Always verify with your owner’s manual or by inspecting the existing blade.
How to verify the exact sizes for your specific truck
Because blade lengths can vary by cab type (Regular, Double, Crew) and trim, it’s a good idea to double-check before purchasing. Here are reliable ways to confirm the correct sizes:
Check the owner’s manual and current blades
Look up the recommended blade sizes in your Silverado’s owner’s manual, and inspect the blades currently installed for size markings.
Use official parts lookup or VIN search
Consult a Chevrolet dealer parts catalog or a reputable parts retailer and enter your vehicle’s VIN to confirm the exact blade lengths for front and rear wipers.
Alternative note: If you’re shopping online, many retailers clearly list front blade lengths as driver and passenger sizes (22" and 20") for 2016 Silverado models, with a 12" rear blade shown for rear-wiper-equipped trucks.
Summary
For most 2016 Silverado pickups, the recommended front wiper blade sizes are 22 inches on the driver’s side and 20 inches on the passenger side, with a 12-inch rear blade if your model has a rear wiper. Always verify for your exact cab configuration and trim by checking the owner’s manual, the blade packaging, or an official parts lookup to ensure an exact match. Keeping the two front blades matched and replacing the rear blade when needed helps maintain clear visibility in all weather.
