What brake lines in front with 5 lug

[Glen75]

I've just finished doing my 5 lug conversion, but i'm not sure if the std E30 flexible brake lines will be long enough. E36 lines look too long.

What flexible lines have others used?

aftermarket lines for an e30 worked fine for me.

SS e30 lines.

Thanks Guys.

1 more question, do you guys also run a E36 rack? As since i installed my E36 rack, it seems to have more travel, so this may stretch the lines further....

negative on that, left the standard rack in.

e36 325i rack here, using SS e30 lines. No problems. I do also have TMS rack limiters as I was rubbing the frame rail with 235/40 17's.

E30 lines work fine, even stock ones.

I haven't modified steering coupling yet, and I need a spare coupling to mess with, but I do have e36 rack sitting on the shelf.

+1 for E30-fitment stainless steel lines. It's what I am running.
