When I bought my car and got a PPI, I was told that the brake lines look like they are still original, which means at this point they are about 19 years old. I want to change them out, and the cost of SS is not much more then buying an OEM equivalent like ATE and OEM is more expensive then a set of SS lines.

I've tried searching around but there isn't many threads on this topic. I thought yours might be the best to ask this question since you are trying to stay in stock class and I know SS lines will bump you up.
I am not planning on replacing the brake hoses at this time, but if I do have to I will have to use the OEM style rubber/PTFE versions. I have used SS lines on other projects, including track day cars, and never needed them nor got any actual measurable performance advantage from them. That said, can't hurt either.
