    I've had goodridge lines for 2-3 years without a single issue. In fact, I've replaced my axles and had the front suspension apart MANY times and put side-load in the banjo bolt connect to the caliper (And even bent them accidentally) without a single leak.

    All of that being said....ss lines only improve brake feel marginally (about as mucvh as a placebo effect I think).
