TIme for new brake line?
My brakes haven't been the best so I decided to start swaping out parts. Decided to replace the old rotors, brearings, brake pads.

Once I got everthing off I noticed this

Now would you say that it is time to get new lines? If so I guess its time for some braided lines. Let me know what you think.

Classic Industris

Year One Earls HK899 braided kit
Here are my two options I am thinking of going with. I have read about Russells so not going that way, I wouldn't get them until sometime next month since they are out of stock anyway. I have heard earls is no longer making theirs but they still show on year ones website, will email them to see if they still have them. So if they are no longer available I am guessing the ones from classic industries are the ones i will be going with.

Here are a couple of choices (I assume you have four-wheel discs):
