So synthetic oil is better overall? I've read in the past that sometimes it makes things worse because its not compatible with the rubber seals in the engine, and degrades them. But if this is the best way to go, I have to trust you guys.

The only time synth is not compatible with rubber seals is in engines that are just totally sludged up from lack of maintenance and seals are degraded and the only thing keeping them from leaking is the sludge itself. Like a car that has 70,000 miles on it and never has an oil change. Put the nice fresh synth in and it will clean up all the gunk and old seals may leak. If you have maintained your car you should not have a problem.
