Caliper render for this kit:
The Volvo V90 carries serious mass over its front axle, a near-1.8-tonne SPA-platform estate with a transverse engine sitting ahead of the front wheels. That weight bias is what asks the most of the front brakes, and it is exactly where the XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit earns its place on the 2016-2026 V90.
This is a big brake kit, a matched pair of left and right front calipers and two-piece floating discs, aimed at the V90 owner who actually uses the car’s range: long loaded motorway runs, towing, fast-road driving in a T6 or T8 that hides its weight until you ask it to stop. More clamping force, more thermal headroom, and a firmer pedal than the factory front setup gives you.
What this brake kit does for your 2016-2026 Volvo V90
On a car as heavy as the V90, the gain you feel first is pedal consistency. The factory front brakes do the job cold, but ask them to haul the estate down from motorway speed two or three times in succession and the pedal lengthens. The hollow-vane disc core cuts rotating and unsprung mass at each front corner, so the brakes shed heat faster and the bite point stays where you left it.
Pad compound is your call. Street is the quiet, low-dust default for everyday road use. Sport adds bite and heat range for harder fast-road work and the occasional track day. Racing is the full track compound for maximum friction under load. The result on the V90 is shorter, more repeatable stops and a brake pedal you can lean on when the car is fully loaded.
About the Hollow front brake kit
The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit replaces the V90’s standard front discs and calipers with larger, vented, two-piece floating rotors paired to an uprated fixed caliper. The hollow-vane core removes material from the disc to lower weight without giving up swept area, which keeps unsprung mass down and helps the disc run cooler under repeated heavy use. The fixed caliper clamps a larger pad more evenly than the factory sliding caliper, putting more consistent pressure across the friction surface.
Disc face is drilled or slotted at the same price, and centre bell upgrades, two-tone anodizing in five colours or titanium, are selectable at checkout. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, finished in the included painted colours Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with any Pantone available as a Custom Color and a premium tier covering polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver plus candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. The Hollow Racing caliper, with no dust cover, a 1000C rating and a two-year warranty, suits sustained track use. Everything is sized to the front axle, where the V90 puts most of its braking load.
Fitment for the Volvo V90 (2016-2026)
This kit fits the front axle of the Volvo V90 across the 2016 to 2026 model run, built around the SPA-platform car’s front brake hardware. It is a front-axle application, the corner that carries the V90’s weight bias. Confirm your trim and wheel size before configuring, as a big front disc needs adequate clearance behind the wheel.

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.
