I've never had a problem with the Mann or Mahle oil filters that we sell.
Usually we sell Mann ones for $5.95.  Here is a link to them in our store:

I have used them for about 18 years now with no issues.  They give a bit
higher oil pressure than the white, orange, or yellow filters that folks
get from FLAPS.
