Aftermarket Source for air/oil filters?

[DonD]

I should be getting my Ascot Green Stinger GT1 delivered anywhere from Friday to Monday. Got it at MSRP. Our son lives in Albuquerque and says the Kia dealers are asking $10,000 over sticker.

My beautiful 2016 Chevy SS was totalled by some cretin with no insurance driving his sister's beater of a 20 yr old Honda who hit me head on. Cop was on scene and said it was 100% the other driver's fault, no way to have avoided.

Having said that, really excited to get the car. American car manufacturers are really getting out of sedans and what remain are loaded up Cadillace CT4 and 5Vs with bloated prices including "market adjustments" and sort of crude Dodges or Dodge Hellcats with single digit mileage in town.

So, where to go to get dealer quality or better air and oil filters? Thanks, Don

Wix makes aftermarket filters. Tork has said (he's of dubious reliability when it comes to tuning, but I don't see why he'd lie about this) that he's seen non-OEM Kia/Hyundai filters have issues. I've ordered a couple of things from genuinekiaparts.com. They are sometimes slow to ship, but they've always eventually delivered. My oil filters took some time - they were waiting for their shipment to arrive.

For the 2.5T, no aftermarket filters that I could find. Wix has the wrong p/n listed. 3.3 folk may be luckier.

I had a 2017 Chevy SS! Great car, I would’ve kept it forever, but the seats were uncomfortable and were killing my bad back. I got AEM dry air filters myself for the Stinger. Not sure about the oil filter. My Kia dealership has such good deal on synthetic oil change, I just let them do it.
