    Horrible, horrible, horrible. poor quality and construction. filter is cheap and flimsy compared to others on market. has far fewer pleats in the filter (means more junk in your engine). I used these and regret it once i found out how poor these were. puraloator is much better, k&n is great along with bosc and mopar. only "good" thing about this is the grip, thats it!

    Don't waste your money and sacrifice you engine

              I am a self studied and experienced home garage mechanic that performs all routine mainteance, and
              most repair work on my vehicles. I service my SUV
              and corvettes as needed. My skills include building complete motors from a bare block for
              high performance street applications and organized racing. Fram filters of all types have
              always been dependable and of high performance.
              In our tight economy, in order to save a "buck",
              ordering supplies from an online supplier such as Advance Auto Parts that has excellent prices is highly recommended by me.

                        I've been using Fram Extra-Guard filters for years, never had a problem and with routine oil changes I always get 200K plus miles on my vehicles before I need to replace them. They do a good job of keeping particles out of the circulating oil. The rough texture of the grip area is a big plus for these filters, it makes them easier to install and especially to remove when time for replacement.

                          Comments about Fram Extra Guard Oil Filter:

                          I've used Fram ExtraGuard filters for 30 years. You just can't beat 'em. I drive my cars a LONG time & Fram has never let me down. Some people say that other brands are built better, but you can't argue with these results:

                          '72 Buick LeSabre 350, 205,000 mi.
                          '70 Olds 442 w/455-4bbl: 362,000 mi.
                          '87 Buick GN 3.8 turbo, 200,000+ mi.
                          '95 Jeep Grand Cherokee: 303,000 mi.

                          I used conventional oil until I owned the Olds for a few years & then switched to full synthetic oil. All of these engines were still running well when I sold the cars. I think other brands like Wix, AC, Purolator, etc. are fine, but with results like these I have no reason to buy anything but Fram.

                          If you use fram filters, after removing from your engine cut it apart to see how it worked and compare the internals to any competetive brand, you will see that fram does not compare, flimsy, low quality materials, poor manufacture, etc. Hey its your engine, check for yourself, Advertising never made a good filter, check for yourself its the only way, Pros never use these filters, their reputation would suffer.
