Guessing these arent the million mile filters? Ended up running across this and was just wondering what people thought of it.

They just come unoiled. Doesn't mean you aren't supposed to oil them upon installation.

 

I think the reasoning behind that is an oiled filter can't be shipped through regular postage. Might pose a hazard...

 

id have to agree with you, but i wonder what type of hazard it would post

 

I would assume fire or something along those lines.

 

Not necessarily a hazard, but probably more costly to ship. Any kind of petroleum-based liquid has to have a materials data sheet filed in compliance with US shipping regulations. On such a cheap item it isn't worth the hassle. Customers can pick up the K&N lube at an auto parts store.

 

ah, that makes sense

 

My cold air came oiled.

 

Paid a lot more than $37 for it, I'll bet.

 

Yea 200 new. Better than the hot box set up.
