Re: what is the best oil filter to use
This will open a huge discussion, and debate. Your really asking for opinions. I have used Valvoline, and Wix. I use Wix the most, and I have heard good things about K&N. It really boils down to your personal opinion of the brands.

Re: what is the best oil filter to use
It seems to be a cheap filter. It falls under one of the attributes you get what you pay for. The more expensive filters have better filtering qualities. Hence the fact that they are a little more expensive.

Re: what is the best oil filter to use
I use WIX, nothing else. There was a thread awhile back that was closed due to this topic. Some guy was a die hard fram fan and didn't like what people had to say. So lets just be careful.
