Braided brake hoses
Braided brake hoses
Has anyone tried braided hoses for their RS, we’re they worth it?
Re: Braided brake hoses
I bought some about 10 years ago and never got round to fitting them. My feeling is that they won't add any performance benefit. However, they do look MUCH nicer than the boggo rubber ones.

Hel fronts. Can't remember if I got the rears. If I did I would have got the same brand. I'll have to dig them out and have a look.
Don't think I can be bothered to sell them TBH. Knowing me, I'll decide I want to them on 10 minutes after letting them go.

No problem. I always like to offer money to people I know first.
Just picked up a set of Hel front and rears new and unboxed on eBay for £45. Happy with that.

I’ll make my own next time I do any work on my brakes. Sleeved stainless hose and stainless fittings. Bonza.

Re: Braided brake hoses
I got some on mine - front and back. Can't remember who made them, but TBH(for my feeling) it was not much difference from the OEM
