Good tools socket set to buy for TL

Whats a good tools, socket set to buy to work on my acura Tl. I need to go buy some tools and a socket set is a must. Can someone point me in the right direction on one to buy for the TL. The cheaper the better as I do not need a top of the line set since I will only use it occassionally. A link would be good, Thanks


Will I need metric or standard for the TL?

Went to Sears, for just sockets, I got the (IIRC) 13 peice Metric set, 3/8ths inch drive.

I've added a deep 19mm for lugs, a spark plug socket and an extension/adapter set.

That plus a set of metric wrenches will do 90% of the basic maint/modding on this car - Oil Change, Tire Rotation, IM Gaskets, TB Spacer, CAI, Brake Pads, Lines, Rotors, RSB, Springs, etc.

If this is the 245 peice set, there is a LOT of overlap and/or unnecessary parts with regard to the TL.
