Any recommendations on steel brake lines for the M Performance Brake Kit? Where can you purchase online?

+1 on the Challenge lines, they compliment the M-performance brakes nicely

I have the challenge lines for my performance brakes. Highly recommended

Weird why SS lines aren't discussed more. Great mod for any car.

Anyone else?

does it work with Msport brake system ?

And a noob question: what benefit does it add? better cooling of whatever fluids run in it maybe?

Pressure/Durability. Normal lines can expand slightly under pressure and can break under extreme conditions. SS lines are more resistant to expanding and thus more durable. Most people do not need them because we do not do the level of braking needed for SS lines. However if you track your car a lot then SS lines are a very good upgrade.

Thanks for the explanation

Does it help with the mushiness of the brake pedal?
