Default braided brake lines

i know there is a huge performance gain by them. wondering if the 80 dollar Ebay ones are as good as the 100 dollar ones...

is it worth the 20 bucks to take the risk?

Never worth the $20 bucks when it comes to stopping your car.

Good way to go, or you would have had an 06' flame-broiled pancake.

I've heard of some of the cheap lines breaking. Not from pressure, but the internal tubing snaps off the head of the line. Anything brakes related I wouldn't skimp on. Get some proven parts, as you mentioned you already did.

$20 is nothing when it comes to your safety.
