Valvoline Max Life 5w30 changed about every 4 weeks or so.... 5w30 is good for pretty much all climates. If your engine burns a little oil, you can try 10w30, but only if your climate doesn't dip down below freezing.

Used year round:

94LS auto gets 5w30 Honda oil. 194kmiles

94GSR gets 5w30 Castrol GTX. 94k miles.

And of course both are used with the OEM honda oil filter.

There is no point in 10w30 because in the end it's still a 30 weight oil. So when the engine is cold your pumping a 10 weight instead of a 5 weight. For the basic I/H/C/E B18 motor stick with a good quality 5w30 motor oil with a MAXIMUM change of 3k miles. If your motor is heavily modified, then talk to your engine builder for what is best. If your motor is running shitty and smokes, use the thicker oil, and save for a re-build.

Valvoline 5w30 Max Life with Amsoil SDF-20 filters is what I used to run in the 'teg and currently run in the 'lude.

The WRX sees Amsoil 5w-30 ASL Synthetic with an SDF-20 filter.

This is year-round in MN, btw.
