Just be sure you by from a recognized manufacturer that has tested them for TÜV certification, DOT compliance and FMVSS 106 standards. Make them prove this. There are a lot of cheap line kits being imported that are below par at best. Other have purchased do-it-yourself equipment that could be OK, but without testing the results from that specific piece of equipment and that specific process (not a generalized test done by the machine's manufacturer), you don't really know what you are getting. For the above reasons, I'd recommend the Stillen/Goodridge lines. These have all the bases covered, along with a lifetime guarantee. Chris |

Getting stainless-steel ones won't expand under pressure, as the weave around the hoses expand very little. The result/benfit is a "snappier" brake, as there is less pressure loss in the rubber part due to expansion. It also looks better IMO. |

+1 to that! I had a rear line failure two years ago on the freeway. It looked like I ran over something that kick up and sliced a rubber line. I had just upgraded the front lines, but the rears in the kit weren't correct. While I was waiting for the replacements, the left rear got cut. Cost me one BMW E34 540i M-Technic 6-speed in pristine condition, but we were lucky no one was hurt. It happened right in front of a highway patrol car. Fortunately, he was a vehicle inspector who signed off on my equipment damage explanation. I was about 4 feet from taking out his car too...
