the ones you listed are the mainly used ones...the lil stuff is..well useless..and the huge stuff is too. i think the biggest you could put in a car or truck is 0 or 0/I

0/l is smaller than 0

Smallest I have seen is 24 gauge and the largest is a 0/2 ( or 2 ODD ). You can get these at welding shops or plumbing shops.
