    Looking to replace my brake lines on my 458 spider with my next bleed. Any recommendations on something better than oem.

    Why … why not [emoji23]. Just like tinkering.

    Tks.

    Have you looked at your brake line going into the caliper? It should be metal, I don't know why you'd want to replace it. If you had a cheap German car with a rubber brake line going all the way to the caliper, it might make sense. But I'm unaware of a better metal line for the last section going into the caliper.

    It will have a rubber pipe somewhere to cope with the suspension movement.

    I replaced mine with the HEL lines and notice zero difference, wasn't worth the time or money.
