    Default braided lines worth it?

    anyone swap out the lines to the calipers with braided lines and notice a differences? search showed a few people that did in with ls1 brake swaps, but couldnt find any with stock brakes.

    I did it, but I don't really notice it. Mainly did it cause of aftermarket K member though.

    My daily is a 3/4 ton, so driving the camaro it could have a missing caliper or two and it would feel quicker to stop.

    The other thought is, are they OE rubber?

    If you can afford it, new rubber lines from a auto parts store couldn't hurt. Rubber does degrade, and all it takes is a hard brake stomp.

    they are only 20 year old, they should be ok.

    yeah you are probably right, they also have been off for a while so exposed to air and moisture.
