An open end wrench? Careful that you don't wreck the filter trying to take it off that way. For the $10-20 a filter wrench would run you, I'd go that route, but your call. When you go to reinstall, don't forget to put some fresh oil on the o-ring of the new filter. Put it on by hand. Some people use a torque wrench to torque them to spec after (usually around 10-15 ft lbs IIRC, dependent on the vehicle). I just put them on hand tight then a slight cinch with a strap wrench. Don't torque the hell out of it when you put it on or you'll never get it off again.
