Joe,
Opinions are easy. Hard facts are harder to come by.
Here are some opinions:
* stay away from Fram filters.
* use the slightly larger PT Cruiser Turbo filters.
* Wix, Purolator, NAPA Gold are good.
* inspect filters carefully for defects. I had a whole six-pack of Canadian-made NAPA Gold where the gasket used at the bottom crimp had squeezed out, potentially risking pieces of cardboard being released into the oil system. The local NAPA had US-made filters that did not have this problem.
* don't buy any parts made in China.
