I used to go for the Fram Ultra Synthetic (not at all the same as the cheap Frams), but lately I've been getting Bosch or AC Delco filters from the internet, as they're decent quality and very inexpensive (1/3 the price of a Fram Ultra).
Pros: decent quality, inexpensive
FRAM is well known for making cheap shit with poor pleating and cardboard drainback valves. Yes, they'll probably work "fine", but its yet another corner cut by SoA. But why settle for fine?
Cons: cheap shit, poor pleating, cardboard drainback valves
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
The original company that made them was bought out by fram and now they are all junk.
Cons: all junk
Pennzoil Platinum Synthetic 0W20 with a Fram Ultra Synthetic oil filter. Every car I've owned gets this (weight varies by engine requirements). Runs better and longer than M1EP, Castrol GTX, Valvoline MaxLife, and it's cheaper than Royal Purple and still can be bought at Walmart.
Pros: runs better and longer
IMO, best bang for your buck is Fram XG6607.
Pros: good value, best quality
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Part number: XG6607
Mobil 1 filters and Fram Ultra filters are good too. Just don't use the the cheap Fram extra guard filter. It's made of paper. The Ultra is higher quality
Pros: higher quality
Cons: made of paper
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
Used fram for 2 years and not a single issue
Pros: no issues
Use the right oil from Walmart or whatever and I used a fram oil filter. I used a higher end one then the standard orange box one. Never had any issues.
Pros: no issues
Dont use a fram filter.... That will help a TON. There is a reason almost nobody uses Fram except walmart. I wouldnt trust the base fram past 3k period
Cons: Dont use a fram filter, wouldnt trust the base fram
