Yep just as good as any other aftermarket brand really. Probably as good as OE.

Fram have been around a million years, you can trust them.

Infact, all the nitromethane supercharged 8,000bhp V8 engines i have seen at events have had big orange fram oil filter on them

EDIT: photo...



Look at the width of those connecting rods

They're not as good as genuine....I work in the parts industry and they are not tested the same as vauxhall parts,they use cheaper poorer quality materials hence the cheaper price...dont be tight and buy genuine! I used to think they were just as good until we actually cut the filters apart and looked inside and the difference was quite noticeable!
