Just purchased a Lisle master torx bit set form Sears at half off. $18. Seems like decent quality. Make in USA.

While I like Lisle tools, and will always buy USA made first. I must say that I have found their Torx bits a bit lacking. You did get a great price though! :)

Here is a picture of a Lisle bit I used only once:

My Lisle torx sockets were sourced from Twizzler and were actually made out of black licorice (they twist a lot).

There is a Lisle brake service set floating around work with various torx and hex sizes. They definitely were not intended for heavy use, they wore out quickly. Snap Ons are WAYYYY better but WAYYYY more expensive, so its a give and take sort of deal. Personally, I like craftsman/kobalt bit sockets. Cheap and durable enough for my needs at home, overall the best value for the hobby user. I use Snap On at work, but these tools here never see an impact.

I loaned a one piece Lisle T55 to the boys accross the street to do a brake job and it came back looking a lot like that one. The two piece Lisle bit sockets that I own have held up quite a bit better.
