Default Recommendations on stainless brake lines?

I'm planning on upgrading my brakes over the winter and I'd like to get some stainless brake lines as well. I've seen the Earl's and the Goodrich lines, but haven't heard much about either one. Are there others I should consider? Any recommendations on a good quality kit or are they all about the same?

We've been very happy with the Earl's. I've heard good things about the Goodridge as well, but I've never used them.

Ive installed the goodrich lines on mine, with the six line kit for traction control. The four lines at the wheels fit perfect, and have all the hardware. The two lines going from the body two the rear end don't have he correct clips to hold them in place, but they stay in place fine with out them. also remember that the bleeding sequence is different for F-bodys with and w/o traction control with t/c its RR then LF then LR then RF w/o t/c its the same old farthest from the master cyl to the closest

This is interesting information that is worth reading before you buy (jus to make an informed decision).

I have had the Earl's on my car for over a year.
