I'm making trays for my wrenches and started wondering if it's even worth making some sizes. So it got me wondering, what sizes are the least used in general? I'm voting for 18mm as I can't think of a single time I've ever used that size, but curious about others' experiences...?

18mm might be rare in classic Porsches, but common for example in 90s BMWs and Saabs. I voted for 14mm, 15mm is another good candidate.

18mm shows up here and there in the JDM world. Fairly certain I've used it on some domestics too.
My vote goes for the 15mm.

It's entertaining that you even put the 10mm on the voting roster :D
