Use the filter that was designed for the vehicle. I'm sure if it would preform better, last longer, or actually required it, it would be on there.
Filters larger than recommended may cause unwanted pressure drop across the filter which may promote wear not reduce it.
Your line of thinking goes right along with "the heavyer the oil the better" and its incorrect. Theres a reason the manufacture makes recommendations. Good luck
