... on what year your 900 is, and what parts you are working on!
For about 90% of what most folks do on their 900s, a complete Metric set will do it all.
For some of the suspension bolts, though, you'll need some SAE wrenches for any year 900. The lower shock nut on the front suspension takes an SAE wrench, and is threaded SAE fine thread. That's on all 900s. Some other bolts it can depend on the year of the car, or whether it has the anti-roll bars or not. With Anti-roll bars, some of the bolts change to Metric from SAE (Ball joints, in particular).
