GoodRidge or Stoptech.
I searched and I read about the size problems with GoodRidge but I think they fixed that. I was wondering if anyone has GoodRidge and has no probems? I know stoptech are good.

StopTech. StopTech lines have an inner Teflon line that in turn is wrapped over by the stainless steel layer. The Stainless steel layer is then covered by a clear protective outer layer.
I've seen instances of stainless steel lines explode because they did not have an outer cover (Goodridge) to protect the line when a rock or other road debris hit them.

Cross Drilled Brake Lines
Want improved braking? Why just cross drill those rotors? Introducing KaleCoAuto cross drilled brake lines! Improved airflow through lines provides superior brake cooling. Brake fluid is exposed to cool moving air, almost instantly reducing heat, and providing shorter stopping distances! All lines are made of quality latex. Brake lines come in: Red and Yellow. Please specify color when ordering!! Warning!! You must replace ALL brake lines at once. You may mix colors.
$69.95 (http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=1)

I would go with Stoptech as well.
Not sure if the GoodRidge lines have a protective outer covering or not, but if they don't, then I wouldn't get them. SS hoses without those coverings will rub surrounding rubber raw.

I know GoodRidge does not have an outer covering. Thanks, looks like I am going with Stoptech, worth the extra 50$.

Honestly, they are all the same, ebay vs stoptech. Just get the cheaper ones, they are all the exact same thing. i got the ebay ones, and they are perfectly fine. Name brands on this stuff is pointless.

You have obviously never heard of the horror stories associated with GoodRidge's old lines.
