I like those Fram oil filters with the black grippy coating on the ends. I have never had a problem since I started using them.

Urghhh FRAM! Get napa gold/wix or mopar.

Walmart sells a $5 oil filter wrench that fits nicely on Mopar/Wix filters. After one stuck filter, I vowed never to be without one again.

Never done more than hand tightened, and have almost always used a Fram, never had any issues.
