I don't know why I look at Wix threads, they are always solid filters.
And what oil filter cut open or not is not such a bore to you?
Please don't say Fram
FRAM!
I was not saying this in a bad way.
Some filters I don't know who makes them and is interesting to see.
Purolator made, well you never know what your are going to get.
There are occasionally issues with Fram and Champ made filters.
We don't see a lot of Mann/Hammel, Hastings, etc filters, so those are interesting.
Just seems every Wix made filter (Wix, NAPA, even the ST and Microguard) comes out looking just fine.

I agree with you 100% and that's why I don't use fram anymore and never will again. I've found way better filters for less money. I can get Baldwin, Hastings, Wix for way cheaper then fram filters and they are built way way better. Never had a issue with these filters at all either. Just have had to many issues with fram filters in the past.

I remember back when wix was made by Dana. White filter can. Awesome filter back then and still is today even though Dana doesn't make them anymore. They still might make the heavy duty truck filters but I can't remember if they do or not anymore. Wix is always solid though. Never had a single issue with any of them.
I used to be a Fram basher - until I realized Honda and Subaru use Fram as the OEM or service filter.

Here's a dozen everyday for $40.92+frt. I offset the shipping cost by adding a couple of excellent Wix cabin filters. They are light so do not add to shipping cost. When you make a trip to Napa to buy stuff, don't forget to account for the cost of fuel and your time. It's hard to beat pressing a couple of keys and having them show up on your doorstep, then having stock in the garage when you need it.
