Any use these "universal" brake line kits?

A few years ago my son-in-law bought a Grand Am that must have lived up north because it had a lot of rust. At some point the original metal brake lines at the rear had been replaced using those easy bend lines. Well... the line used was waaaay too long to the installer coiled the excess length behind the wheel. We discovered this when that tire came apart and destroyed the line.
Proper lengths and routed out of harms way is the best plan.
