    Brake Line Recommendation

    Looking for feedback on the various available brake line materials.

    1. Rhinohide PVF lines (included in kit)
    2. Stainless steel
    3. NiCopp (copper nickel)

    I used seamless stainless steel for my fuel lines and like the way they turned out. Didn't use what came with the kit because I needed to upsize to 3/8". I'm inclined to go this way again for the brake lines (except in 3/16", of course), but I'm questioning if there's any reason to go away from the the Rhinohide lines that were included in the kit. I've heard good things about the NiCopp lines as well (same strength as steel but more easily formed). What do you guys say?

    Thanks,

    -Karl

    The FFR lines worked perfectly for me. I see no need to go through the trouble of stainless lines. You will see very little of them once the car is finished.

    I'm 100% with Mike on this.
