Fits Hyundai SANTAFE DM (2013-2018)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Hyundai SANTAFE DM (2013-2018) — 356 mm
356 mm

The DM-generation Santa Fe’s transverse-engine layout piles most of its mass over the front axle, and the stock braking hardware was sized for routine family use rather than the harder demands of a loaded 4WD SUV. Repeated high-speed deceleration on motorway runs, long descents with a caravan in tow, or simply carrying a full complement of passengers and luggage: that front-axle thermal load accumulates faster than the OE assembly was built to absorb.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit is catalogued for the Hyundai Santa Fe DM across the full 2013-2018 production span. It is a front-axle kit, a matched left and right pair of larger calipers and two-piece floating discs, with a choice of three pad compounds matched to how the car is actually used: Street for quiet, low-dust daily duty, Sport for harder fast-road work with the occasional track day, and Racing as a full track compound.

What this brake kit does for your 2013-2018 Hyundai SANTAFE DM

Larger front discs extend the swept area and improve heat rejection, which on a vehicle this side of 1,800 kg translates directly into more consistent bite under repeated hard stops. The hollow-vane internal structure channels air through the disc to pull temperature away from the friction face, and the two-piece floating design keeps the iron ring flat as it heats so the pedal stays firm rather than pulsing. The three pad grades mean you are not buying a single-spec kit: Street keeps the DM quiet and clean in daily duty, Sport handles more aggressive braking without the cold-temperature sensitivity of a full race pad, and Racing delivers maximum friction for owners prepared to manage its warm-up. Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone available, all sitting visibly through the front wheel spokes.

About the Hollow brake kit

The caliper is a hollow-body forging as standard, light but stiff under hard clamping, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use that runs no dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Disc construction routes internal airflow to draw heat away from the friction surface under extended braking, the mechanism that separates a genuine step-up kit from a plain OE-replacement disc, and you can specify it drilled or slotted at the same price. Three pad grades cover the spectrum from daily commuting through to a hard racing spec, letting the same caliper and disc serve different driving styles without a swap. Beyond the no-cost painted colours, premium finishes run to polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange, while centre bells can be upgraded to two-tone anodizing in five colours or titanium, all selectable at checkout. The front-only fitment focuses the upgrade budget on the axle that carries the DM’s engine weight and absorbs the majority of deceleration force.

Fitment for the Hyundai Santa Fe DM (2013-2018)

This kit is listed for the Hyundai Santa Fe DM chassis, covering the 2013 to 2018 production run. The DM kept a consistent front suspension and braking architecture across both the 2WD and AWD variants throughout this period. Verify your build’s existing front disc diameter and caliper bolt pattern before ordering to confirm sizing compatibility with your specific variant.

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.
