Need to replace my wet exhaust 2" hose and was wondering if I need wire or no wire inside. The hose is 24" and forms a gentle 90 deg curve from elbow to muffler. The old hose had wire and it was rusted out.

IIRC, when you buy "true" exhaust hose it comes with wire. Since it's something one does once every 15 years, why settle for less?

Best to use wire reinforced hose to avoid kinks where it bends.

Thanks - that's what I was leaning towards. Just did not like the rust.
