Default Braided brake Lines

So I am replacing my Master Cylinder and
Flushing the brake lines...so I figured I would
look into braided lines to stop flex/ bulge issues
I have read about....

Are Braided brake Lines worth it ??

Front only ....or Rear benefit also ?

Any one have a link to a parts place that has
them specifically for 1999 Blazer ?

Truth be told, though braided brake lines look pretty, the stock brake lines last longer than one might expect. For the price of the braided lines, you'd go through 4 or more stock lines easily. For that to pay off you'd probably need to have your vehicle for more than 50 years.

So, are you more into looks or saving a bit of money?
