I recommend avoiding them. First, published flow tests show that they do not consistently flow more than typical OE type paper filters. Second, if the oil drys out they essentially stop filtering, and there is no way to objectively measure proper oil concentration.

The "resueability" claim is a sham. It makes about as much sense and washing out an old oil filter and putting it back on your engine.

A significant portion of their price is fed back into advertising to hype their supposed benefits.
