Wrenches and sockets all come in multiple sizes. Which you have depends on the kind of work you do. Most craftsmen have a full set of metric wrenches and sockets and a full set of SAE wrenches and sockets. Most get by with 3/8 drive sockets, but many have 1/2 sockets as well.

Wrenches or spanners are most useful. Sockets are very useful in many cases. I keep complete sets of both SAE and Metric wrenches in my car. along with Allen wrenches of both types.
