Caliper render for this kit:

The F22 235i puts its turbocharged straight-six directly over the front axle, and that weight distribution makes itself known under hard braking. BMW’s production brake package handles road conditions without incident, but the front-axle load in the 235i coupe means the standard stopping hardware accumulates heat faster than you might expect, particularly once a track session or a long spirited road run begins stacking thermal cycles.
The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit is the direct front-end upgrade for the F22 235i. It is a single-axle front kit, supplying a matched pair of front calipers and front discs, available with Street, Sport or Racing pad compounds and a wide choice of caliper finishes.
What this brake kit does for your 2014-2026 Bmw 2 Series F 22 235I
On the F22 235i, where the engine mass sitting forward means the front brakes carry the bulk of the braking load under trail-braking into corners, fade resistance matters more than raw bite. The hollow-vane, two-piece floating discs shed heat more efficiently than a solid casting, moving the point at which pedal feel softens further down the session, and the floating construction keeps pad contact even as the rotor expands.
Three pad compounds let you calibrate to how the car is used: Street is the quiet, low-dust default that preserves everyday driving behaviour, Sport sharpens initial response and heat range for fast-road driving, and Racing holds performance through the sustained heat of repeated hard stops. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price. Caliper finish runs from the included painted colours of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, through Custom Color in any Pantone, to premium polished-forged and candy options, giving the front end visual coherence with any wheel and bodywork combination.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit is a complete front braking upgrade, covering caliper, disc, and pad compound in a single fitment-specific package. The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, paring mass from the corner while preserving clamping force, and the hollow-vane, two-piece floating discs form the thermal management core of the kit, designed to dissipate the heat generated by the front axle of a performance car carrying significant nose weight.
Three pad specifications, Street, Sport and Racing, provide a configuration for every use case, from the daily commute to sustained circuit work. Disc style is drilled or slotted at the same price, and caliper finish covers the included painted colours of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, plus Custom Color in any Pantone and premium polished-forged or candy options for those who want the front brake package to complement rather than clash with their build. Centre bell upgrades in two-tone anodized colours or titanium are selectable at checkout, alongside braided lines. For serious track use, the optional Hollow Racing caliper upgrade runs without a dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. The kit is front-position specific and sized to the F22 235i chassis.
Fitment for the Bmw 2 Series F 22 235I (2014-2026)
This brake kit is confirmed for the BMW 2 Series F22 chassis, 235i variant, across the 2014 to 2026 production span. The F22 is the two-door coupe body style, distinct from the F23 convertible and the four-door Active Tourer variants within the 2 Series range. Check the fitment selector if your car carries a different engine code or chassis designation; XYZ Racing produces distinct kits for other models within the BMW 2 Series family.

Choosing your spec
Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.
Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing
Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.
Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.
Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing
Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.
Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish
Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).
Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.
Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).


Centre bells
The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
