I have then, they give you a more positive feel on the levels. The stock hoses tend to feel spongy.

Take you fingers and hold the stock rubber brake line just a couple inches from the master cylinder. Squeeze the brake lever and feel how much the rubber line expands. You can imagine how hard it is to maintain good pressure with the line expanding. Like rob said, it gives a lot better feel on the lever and gives more power to the slave cylinder.
