Why yes I have. One of my first Costco purchases (in1984) was a half inch drive metric socket set that I bought specifically because it contained a 17mm socket that fit my VW Rabbit lug bolts. The damned socket broke the first time I tried removing a lug bolt. Lesson learned: no more crappy sockets for me.

(Costco sells better tools nowadays...)
