These things are useless, (once oil get on the fabric it will just spin).. get a proper sized ones eg
Lisle Corporation You will save a lot of frustration. Those things won't even overcome the friction of the seal, much less when the engine is warm etc. A few bucks extra, you save yourself staring blankly at the filter, with you underneath the car in this weather. Heck I have a pretty nice garage and lift to work in and I will still go batshit if I have to use the tool you want.
or at least this:
Oil Filter Wrench | Princess Auto for $7
In case you are confused how those specific ones like Lisle are described.. you need to know the filter diameter and the number of angles there are.. eg Toyota has 14 flutes and is 64mm.
