Chingon, the advantages of braided brake lines are that they do not wear out like rubber lines will, when your truck ages and your rubber lines start to fade, they will bulge when braking is applied, not allowing for as much pressure in the line itself. because your vehicles are new or at most 4 years old to most of the people i am speaking with, you will not experience this because your lines are pretty much new. I will be doing the braided brake line swap when i lift my truck. i'll inform you if there is any difference. steel brake lines will not decrease stopping distance only pressure in the lines, so it will decrease brake fade. This other guy told you pedal feel would be different, yet its not. So you have just told me he is wrong and you still believe him?? Keep in mind the tests that were run we run under ABS activation, so if you lived in snowy and icy regions where your vehicle would have many more abs activation than someone in cali. Therefore you will not see the pad life cut inhlaf unless you stop hard enough to have abs activation. Hope this helps.

Sure fooled me. But you know better than Baer and Willwood, right?
I never said rally cars. I said AutoCross. (and if i did I meant to say autocross, show me where i said rally so i can correct it. Rally guys probobly use them to get the dust/dirt out.)
Porsche, ferrari ect use them to look pretty and to sell them; the same reason wilwood stated they sell them. Not to make you stop faster.

I said the rotors I have feel more or less the same. However, that has nothing to do with my statement that the Big 3, and plenty other big companies follow the "bottom line" rule. Do I have to explain that to you too, or are you going to comeback with another not-so-witty, smart *** reply because you have to have the last word like a little child? Go on child.
