At this point I pretty much just use the dealer/factory parts. Other stuff can't be trusted. I picked up an oil filter recently for my 420 from the dealer, and it was of noticeably higher quality than the "Mann" filter I had in there previously. If even filters are better, then with suspension parts etc, its likely even more important.
