I've been using WIX filters for the last few oil changes, I'm wondering if anyone has torn apart a Wix filter and can describe what they came up with. Thanks
Anyone Studied a Wix filter?

Agreed. From a purely visual inspection they seem very good. One of my first filter cutting sessions was with Fram, Wix, Hard Driver, and STP. The wix compared well, especially considering price. I used to buy their ST series filters in half cases.
Dana makes them, and supplies quite a few resellers such as Carquest stores with relabeled product.
Of course, the way mfgrs seem to shift specs, my wix & your fram may be the same.

In Canada, the AC Delco filters are made by Dana in Cambridge ON, so they should be similar in quality to Wix.
wix makes different quality filters. the main differences seem to be either a nitrile or silicone valve and different media.
