Fitting braided hoses to my 106 with 266mm brakes
#11
As I have said before if your doing the job doubt right!!!

You don't want your brakes failing!!!

As said the 306 ones are around 20cm longer than the 106!!!

As has also being said it is common knowledge that the standard 106 pulls tight when on full lock etc,over time this can lead to a weakening of the line which in turn can lead to a hose failure!!
Also if an mot tester spits it being pulled tight it is a fail!!

Don't scrimp on brakes, either leave them alone or do them right .
At the end of the day you don't want to find out the hard way that a hose has failed
