Fram for sure aren't. The guys using Fram for years will say "no problem" until one of the Frams fail on them.

Wix ftw!

How good are the K&N oil filters? I've read some posts on here about their air filters.

Yesterday I finally got my front fenders to look better. I'm getting new ones in the future so I figured I'd trim more. Took off that crappy monstaliner and just threw on rust oleum Bedliner (which has more chance of surviving than monstaliner) turned out good. Better than what it was.

K&N Filters are Mobil1 filters with a nut welded to the bottom. Mobil1 makes a great filter. It's not worth the extra $ for a K&N just for the nut IMO.

K&N reminds me of John Deere. Good stuff for the most part but you are truly paying for the name.

I was worried when i first bought them as to how the sidewalls performed considering the lines i take required alot of sidewall work. No worries anymore, they perform very well!
