The usual way to stop wipers juddering assuming of course the blades are in good condition is to twist the steel pivot arm that the wiper blade attaches to so that the blade is exactly 90 degrees to the windscreen.
The juddering is usually caused by the blade wiping edge not flipping over on the change of wiper direction, they should always trail and not lead. I bet the judder only happens in one direction on each blade.
I had the same problem on the big wiper, tried 3 types of brand new blade but all juddered. Wrapped masking tape around the steel arm for protection and used two adjustable spanners to twist the arm until the judder stopped. The reason I used two spanners was so as not to place any strain on the pivot point.
As a guide when viewing wipers from the front of the car, if the judder is when the wipers are sweeping to the right (as mine was) the arm when pivoted away from the windscreen needs tweaking anticlockwise and vice versa if the judder is in the opposite direction. Take care though you will probably only need a very slight adjustment.
