Default Stainless Steel Brake Lines

Just curious if anyone has installed stainless steel brake lines. If so, are you happy with the results and what brand did you use? Thank you in advance.

I had some Goodridge SS brake lines put on my Sierra Denali and they helped firm up the brake feel. I should install some on my Subaru which would benefit from a firmer pedal. I don't feel the LS needs any changes to the brake feel.

I have Stoptech braided SS lines on my LX. The main reason I replaced them was the outside rubber sheath of the original hoses were cracking after only 3 yrs in AZ heat.

I had Goodridge SS on my GS but it was 10 years old. Any reason you are looking to upgrade?
