Stainless steel brake lines

Can you guys tell me which brake line kits you fitted and your experiences with them?

Also interesting to hear the brake fluid used.

Thanks!

I bought Spiegler SSBLs

They cost twice as much as the Stoptech one's and it's pretty easy to see why

Still using stock brake fluid. Not tracking the car.
Just wanted less line swell and more peace of mind if I ever run over some sort of debris on the highway.

I totally agree that Spiegler is one of the best stainless steel lines out there. Nothing wrong with Stoptech if someone wants to save a few dollars.

How hard is it to fit them all round for a local workshop? Any thoughts on possible cost for replacing them?
