WIX Oil Filters

Does anyone have any comments on WIX oil filters? I have been using them since my second oil change. They even have the check valve in them like the OEM's do. I heard that they were pretty good, but I never hear much about them. Any comments?

Thanks,
juice

WIX makes nice filters. I have never had a problem with them. I use them in my Jeep, which I have the folowing work done too.

5.9L AMC engine punched .030 over
Edelbrock performer Intake
600CFM Edelbrock Carb
Edelbrock Performer Cam
Roller timing chain
9.5:1 pistons
high volume oil pump

340hp 400 ftl/lbs torque

I wouldn't use any other filter for my truck. I use mainly OEM on the Acura.
