What is the main benefit of stainless steel braided brake lines over rubber ones?

Stainless steel braided lines, like these from Goodridge, are much more rigid than rubber. This means they don't expand under pressure, leading to a firmer pedal feel and more consistent braking compared to stock rubber lines.

Are these brake lines difficult to install?

Replacing brake lines typically requires bleeding the brake system afterward. While the lines themselves are a direct replacement, it's recommended to have basic tools and knowledge of brake bleeding procedures, or consult a professional mechanic.

What does the PTFE inner hose do?

The PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) inner hose is smooth and non-porous, allowing for optimal fluid flow and preventing contamination. It works in conjunction with the stainless steel braid to ensure a firm and reliable brake line.

Product Details

Goodridge brake lines use a PTFE inner hose wrapped in a stainless steel braid. This construction helps eliminate the sponginess you can feel with standard rubber brake lines, especially when they start to age. By replacing your factory lines with these, you'll notice a firmer brake pedal feel, which can lead to shorter stopping distances and more consistent braking performance, particularly during spirited driving or repeated hard stops.

The stainless steel overbraid is also resistant to abrasion and corrosion, meaning these lines are built to last and won't degrade over time like rubber can. This kit is designed to fit specific Mini Cooper models from 2016 to 2020, including the 4-door and S 4-door variants. Upgrading your brake lines is a practical step to improve your car's overall braking efficiency and driver feedback.
