Default oil weight, filter size, wiper size?

need to get some info real quick.

first need warm weather oil, is it 10w30?

what oil filter size? Im ordering from jegs if anyone knows of a good one they sell. I understand there is the ring size, but keeping that size the same, there is an oversized filter that can be used?

and lastly what is the windsheild wiper blade sizes? 18 and 20 or are they the same? I dont have any manuals with me, Im at work, but want to order the oil stuff, Im 300miles past due. DOH!

Drivers side wiper is 20", passenger side and rear wiper are 18".
Bosch inserts direct fit in your original blade holder frames.

i use 5-30 in hot weather too. the 10-30 is technically an option here in fla... but even in summer, i feel that it will take the oil at least a split second longer to get to the top when starting cold if i go with 10-30. in my perception, that would mean the engine runs less lubricated during a key moment.
