Default Stainless steel brake lines?

Hi Gents, I own a 2019 GT2 RS and have at this point decided to keep her OEM but I am considering stainless steel brake lines with the expectation it would be a good overall improvement in braking performance and feel. Has anyone installed SS brake lines in an RS car with OEM PCCB setup and if so what were your post install impressions? Also what vendors would you recommend I consider? For now my car is only a street car. Thanx

search for Spiegler Stainless Brake lines, have them on my 991.1 GT3, highly recommended, also use a good brake fluid.

I've installed but also different rotors and pads ... Feels better, a lot but many factors.

With PCCB on the street, changing out the lines won't change anything for you. The brake feel is more the pad and rotor's, PCCB's can feel wooden by default.

Thanx for your reply...I have searched for a word/term to describe my impressions of PCCB feel (other then the hand of God) and wooden hits the nail on the head.

Absolutely pointless, will do nothing for feel
