Oil filter question.

In the fall of 2023 I bought a wix filter and a napa gold filter for the wife's car (a honda, sorry). The filters were bought 2 weeks apart and from 2 different stores. Both filters had off centered threads and would not snug up to the oil filter plate on the engine straight enough, causing a small leak.
I wound up buying a purolator brand filter from Menard's and haven't had a problem since.
I agree motorcraft is a darn good filter,
and that wal-mart never seems to have them
