If you convert or build your car's running gear to Whitworth threads, that makes a lot more sense. I guess the clever way to do it would be to source a set of Elora spanners of the correct pattern but in AF sizes, perhaps?

It's all really just for display. For example, I wouldn't want to use the bleeder tool as it was too much work to replicate that correctly and I have 16/3 and 12/3 calipers that it fits! I wouldn't want to use the jack either unless I was stuck with no other means to deal with a flat.
