Default Do I need a socket set for impact wrench

Just wondering about the need for a new socket set for use with my impact wrench.

I have used an ordinary 32mm socket with an impact wrench and it was fine so do I need a set designed for impact wrenches?

My impact wrench is 3/4 inch drive but these sets are very expensive, 1/2 inch is much cheaper and I think I have 3/4 to 1/2 inch convertor but this will add an inch or so to the overall length.

This draper set is not too bad but it does not have 18mm or 32mm which I would like

So, should I get a set designed for an impact wrench and can you suggest
a good "cheap" set that has more sizes, 16, 18 and 32 should also be in the set as well as the ones in the above set.

thank you
