XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Peugeot 301 (2012-2026)

Front-wheel-drive platforms like the 301’s concentrate braking load on the front axle under hard deceleration, a bias that the 301’s factory hardware, sized for economy-car duty, handles well enough on a gentle commute but less convincingly when the pace rises. The front end is where the 301’s braking story is written, and upgrading it here is the change that matters.

The XYZ Racing front big brake kit slots in on the front axle of 2012-2026 Peugeot 301s as a matched left-and-right pair of larger discs and forged calipers, with three pad compounds. Specify for the way you use the car, not for the way it left the factory.

What this brake kit does for your 2012-2026 Peugeot 301

The larger hollow-vane discs improve heat management over the 301’s stock fronts. On a front-biased FWD car that sees repeated hard stops, disc temperatures climb faster than economy-spec parts were designed to handle gracefully. The hollow-vane design draws heat away from the braking surface more effectively, keeping pad performance consistent across successive heavy stops, while the two-piece floating disc construction keeps the friction ring flat as it heats and trims rotating and unsprung mass off the front corners.

Three pad compounds match friction characteristics to the use case. Street is the quiet, low-dust default for everyday road use. Sport adds bite and heat range for fast-road driving with occasional track time. Racing is for autocross or circuit sessions where brake temperatures spike repeatedly within a single outing. Braided stainless lines come with the kit to keep the pedal firm under load.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The disc uses a hollow-vane internal geometry that promotes airflow through the disc body under rotation, managing heat more aggressively than a conventional ventilated design. The caliper is a hollow-body forged unit as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade that removes the dust cover, carries a 1000C rating and a two-year warranty for sustained high-temperature exposure.

Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, span distinct friction windows. Painted caliper colours are included at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, giving owners control over the visual presentation from understated finishes to high-contrast performance aesthetics. A Custom Color in any Pantone shade is available for £150, with premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver and candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, with a two-tone centre bell in five anodized colours or titanium selectable at checkout. The kit addresses the front axle only, which on the 301’s FWD layout is where brake upgrade investment returns the most.
