SS Brake lines on rear necessary?

[matt97gst]

Yes or No? I got the baer kit for the front along with new rotors for the rear. Do I need to get SS brake lines for the rear since I will have them on the front?
ps. If I have fairly new brake pads right now on the car is it possible to use them on the new rotors I will be installing or should I get new pads?

The primary reason for upgrading to SS lines is take some flex out of the system, thereby improving response and pedal feel. Replacing half of the rubber lines should be an improvement. If you like the new feel, but want even more, go ahead and replace the rears too.

It's recommended to change out the rear, but it's not absolutely necessary.

By the same token, you don't need the fronts either then.

I have never seen them sold separately anyway.
