I looked a bit closer at those three sets... props to them, they don’t skip any sizes! And go a bit larger than my set as well. I gotta convince my wife to but them for me for Christmas!!!!!

For me, and my needs, if I was buying those Tekton tools, I'd go with

1/4" set in just mm only

3/8" set in mm & inch

1/2“ set in mm only

That 3/8" set has enough inch range to meet my needs.  Save a little.

I have a few years older version of this set for my junkyard/portable box, would definitely recommend. Great as a first set too. The box is fairly cheesy but still lightyears better for organization than having everything rolling around the bottom of a metal box. It even looks like they upgraded the latches from plastic to metal since I bought mine.

If you're wanting something with a case go Kobalt.  If you're just wanting loose items there's no reason not to just go to harbor freight.  Every hand tool is lifetime.  Just be wary of the cheaper ratchets.

I got an older one of those to stash at my In laws so I did not have to keep hauling my stuff over there, it is a good first set.

For switching out wheels and tires at an autocross/trackday or rallycross, it'll do the job and at $80 it's a not worrisome to question where it is like a $250 much nicer and more capable unit.

If I wasn't already deep into Dewalt's and Milwaukee's ecosystems I'd be all over this. That's like getting 2 batteries and a charger for $35.
