What Metric size bolts do Honda's never use?
Just building up my tool collection and would like to know what sized metric bolts are never used on Honda's.
Just going through my tools and noticed lots of gaps in wrench and driver sizes and needed to know what I need and don't need in terms of sizes.
Thanks

Mostly 8mm,10mm,12mm,14mm,17mm and some larger sizes.Most hardware store bolts use 13mm instead of 12mm.

since you never know when you are going to need a tool you thought you didn't "need."

i use 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 17mm, 19mm, 22mm(certain sensors), 24mm(certain sensors), 27mm(certain sensors), 32mm and 36mm (both for axle nuts).
I do not recall ever using another size on a stock honda or acura.
I like to have one of each of the above in shall and deep socket 3/8 inch drive, the 8/10/12 in shallow and deep 1/4 inch drive, and then the 14 and larger in deep socket 1/2 inch drive.
i also have a bucked or 9, 11, 13, 15, and other odd sized sockets that i so rarely use...usually only when someone brings a car in to the shop that has had hardware store bolts put in it....
