I never said anything about the Greens because I had no direct experience with them; only 2nd hand info...

I said many months ago that if someone is looking for a cotton filter to use the BMC filters (they have a good rep in the racing industry).

Unfortunately, the info on the greens only came to light when people ran them for a while and checked them and noticed they had collapsed much like what happened to me with the ITG filter I tried.

Not sure.. I got their name off the BMC website. It must be the same company.. Contact them and see if they are a BMC distributor..

KTR in mass?

Green is an awesome company that will get my business again. Call them up, they'll take care of it.

Yes, if anyone has a problem, contact Green Filter and they will take care of it and send you a replacement or do whatever it takes to take care of the problem.

My green filter in my ML55 fits super snug and I don't have any trouble with it,...We all should be careful when ordering these high priced filters, maybe talk to someone when ordering to make sure that you are getting the correct filter,..and not order over the Internet!!! and definitely keep tabs on them to TRY to prevent any problems!!! Thanks for the head up!
