Hi ummy,
stainless lines are used a lot to improve bike brakes and they give a firmer edge to the brakes generally. Some think that it takes away some of the "feel" but this isn't so noticeable on cars, to be honest if your original lines aren't degraded or damaged in any way then it's a debatable expense - good clean fluid and properly serviced calipers with good pads is probably a better way to go. If these are ok save up for petrol! blush.gif

I have Goodridge Hoses on my IS200 with new fluid and new Mintex Pads, they are a great improvement IMO.
Reasonably priced too about £40-50 I think for the hoses.
