Don't be cheap, if a hose fails it could be your life. The best I have found for quality but not the least expensive is J&M Products/hotpart.com hoses. They are a true OEM fit and finish and are DOT legal.

I installed Goodrich on mine. . . . at the time I did it I think they were the only company that made the complete 6 hose kit for a 2000 with ASR and TCS
