brake line question...

hey whats up, i am currently finishing up my Baer brake install for the front and the back, and i am getting to the point of installing the brake lines. well last year i ordered some Earl's brake lines and solo bleeders, but never installed them. well little did i know that Baer gives you some braided brake lines as well. my question is which do you guys think i should install? are the Earl's ones better than the ones that Baer supplies? any info would be appreciated! thanks

both should be the same more or less so long as they are both the same specs (steel braided and same diameter)

id use baers just because it came with it

brakes

if you are going with baer pbr and 13 in rotors you will need to use the lines that came with the baer kit also the banjo bolt for the pbr calipers is different. stock calipers are steel and baer calipers are alumnium if you have speed bleeders from your stock brakes they will not fit your new brakes , as for the rear lines if your just changing your rotors they will do fine but if your using pbr calipers use the lines that come form baer good luck

Brake lines included in Baer brake kits are from either Earl's or Goodridge. Either is a quality product.
