I don't know that much about cars but I know they are the lines that supply brake fluid to the piston that pushes on the caliper that then pushes the pads onto the rotors to slow down your car. If I'm mistaken or have something wrong about it someone feel free to correct me cuz like I said I don't know much myself. Just know the basics.... :halfrobot:

That is correct, redkysolarase. Stock Solaras come with rubber compound brake lines, which can flex, age, and crack in time with the pressure of the brake fluid. Upgrading to braided metal lines can keep the stress off the brake line and provide better stopping distance and reaction off the brake pedal.
