I've also found 10, 15 and 17mm to be very useful on my car.

My advise it 'DONT' Buy shite if you like your knuckles, buy quality, sidchrome, lifetime gt, or splash out on Snap on (if you are loaded),

One thing i found great was hitting cash converters for spanners, especailly when you need that second 13mm or one to chop down to reach that hard spot. Just be willing to go digging and noramlly you can find sidchrome or similar for about $1 each.
