There just isn't enough filter area in them and they're too restrictive.

Thanks ducati1974. That makes perfect sense. The brackets that hold my 1 inch filter would would have to be replaced if I went with a 4-5 inch filter, right? Or is the perimeter of the 4-5 inch filter 1 inch as to fit under the brackets?
