fendervg 33 Posted July 31, 2016 OEM or Goodridge braided if you want to spend a it more for mainly cosmetics. Standard hoses should last at least 5 years if installed and bled properly, but they are a maintenance item as the rubber will perish and bulge with age.

fendervg 33 Posted July 31, 2016 You'll need a set for standard G60 brakes then I guess as all the OEM rear callipers are the same. Note that braided hoses can actually be a danger if not checked carefully every year as the inner rubber hose can perish without having any external warning signs to show it.
