There's nothing wrong with using an oil filter wrench to install a new oil filter. Most filters will turn very easily for another 1/4-1/3 turn with a filter wrench, and this usually puts the "final tightness" at just under 1 full turn - which is fully acceptable.

Different people have different strengths. As long as you keep track of how far the filter has turned, there's nothing wrong with using the wrench to complete the installation.
