Brake Hose Set Hel Performance MX5 Mk1/2/2.5 Standard Brake Reviews

4.5 Rating 12 Reviews

Hel Performance Stainless Steel Brake Hose Set We have worked closely with Hel Performance to develop these incredibly high quality, fully stainless steel brake hose sets available in red, black, silver or blue. To our knowledge this is the only set where all the fittings, including the distribution block, are made entirely from stainless steel. Unlike standard lines, these don’t expand when pressure is applied, therefore eliminating the “spongy” feeling you can sometimes get under braking. Fits all Mk1, Mk2 & Mk2.5 models with standard brakes only. If you have a Mk2.5 sport with the bigger brakes, click here!

“Fronts are too short by 3 - 4 cm. At full lock it forces the hoses in a wrong way around the rigid socket (engine side of the hose). After only a few miles of driving, you'll see the hose seems to have been pinched a few times, and that it starts keeping this shape for good. Not good at all, the hoses won't last long, + as you may think, it's no good having brake hoses that suddenly end up obliterated while you're driving. So be very careful if you prefer to grow your own experience and fit them anyways, and please check at least your front hoses for wear on a regular basis!”

“I bought a set of these at the oc rally at Kelmarsh to replace the standard hoses. They feel slightly better on the road but on the track theres a big difference. The braking feel is much firmer and it gives me more confidence to brake later into the corners.”

“ive had the problem with the front hoses rubbing ive had them on my car for 3 years fully lowered etc.passenger side rubs a little more but they do make breaking alot better, be warned when fitting double check after a couple of weeks the hose may need fixing with a clip or something.All in all a great buy just wish they would say they can rub on the wheels when in full lock now i have to buy new hoses so not very impressed by this.”

“I\'m not too impressed. Everything needed was in the package but at the front it is a little hard to get them twisted in such a way that they don\'t touch the wheels at full turn. After the install we checked the clearance and it was fine. About a month later I noticed that the lines had set a little and especially the front left wheel scrubs against the line when the steering wheel is at full left. The line is now worn through to the metal and I need to replace it before it starts leaking :(- Tom”

“Great product, easy fit on the car and fast delivery as usual.Use an appropriate tool with the nuts (on the brake metal hoses) or you could destroy them !”
