snap-on?i bet you paid out your ass!! i got mine from sears,$50 metric and standard sets.they only came with 7-9 wrenches a set,but wat it is wat i needed.i need to get another set of each cuz sum dumb fuker wanted more then i did.but they are the 1 of the best things invented .oh,get both seta if you cvan.you never know wen you goin to need the one you dont have

actually no i didnt pay "out the ass" snap ons prices are actually the cheapes out there(MAC,matco,snap on) there hte blue point brand(off name of snap on same shit tho)8-19mm paid 109 for the set. thast with a lifetime warranty no questions asked. ive broke prob 3/4s of them.not the wrench the wratchet part they dont seem to like bein hammerd on...also snap on has 2 diff styles. angle head(which i have) and swivel head. and there reversable like a ratchet so u aitn gota flip it over to tighten/loosen sumthin. trust me i will argue all day abotu tools, i have pretty much all snap on at work and i love em all.



iwas just sayin cuz i think they are alil higher over here for some reason.i THINK.but idont deal with snap-on any more so im not sure,but thats a good deael for your set though.

ok last couple sets of questions... they make an option with no slip... like you put it on the nut and it cant comeo ut the top of it.... what you think about that? also they make them striahg tnad angled... which do you have or would prefer and why.. i owuld say angled but i mean they offer two options for a reaosn and i want to make a wise choice before i spend money on tools that might not be the best for me. went ot go get my stes today and saw those options and decided to hold off and find out.. thanks duders.

i got angled. sometimes its usefull sometimes its not but they work good for me.

i had straight,but its wat YOU think would be best for you.plus,wen i got mine the angled option wasnt availible yet.

I must say the racheting wrenches, are the shit. I got my craftsman wrenches @ sears. they have both metric and standard.

I got the metric snap-on ones 8-19mm and yes I paid out the a** for them but the only one I have broke was the one I used for a hammer and the wratchet guts went flying out of the end and was still covered under warranty they cost me about 375 and I dont regret it one bit best ones I have ever used.
