Well not everyone says all FRAMs are JUNK
I think most people just really dont like the FRAM EXTRA GAURD.
Now the FRAM TOUGH GAURD uses Cardboard End Caps and people here like em.
The HONDA A02 looks more like a FRAM TOUGH GAURD side by side to EXTRA GAURD.
The A02 Has more Pleats then a EXTRA GAURD and SILCONE ADBV just like a TOUGH GAURD.
So when ppl say the HONDA A02s look good they dont refer to the Fram Extra Gaurd.
However personally I have used FRAM Extra Gaurd and never had problems, however I changed teh oil at 3000 Miles...
Thing some people dont like about the Fram Extra Gaurd is there are oil filters for a lesser price that is better oil filter.... Like NAPA SILVER or A/C DELCO if you can find a non E CORE.... Or Motorcraft... They are all about the same price or cheaper then a FRAM Extra Gaurd and are better filters IMO.
IMO
The TOUGH GAURD
THE FRAM ULTRA are both very good oil filters.
Im not a big fan of the HIGH MILAGE or THE Extra Gaurd.
However I have used them both in the past...
