Caliper render for this kit:

The E92 330’s nose-heavy inline-six layout throws weight onto the front axle every time you hit the brakes, which is exactly why the rear so often gets overlooked, and why it becomes the limiting factor the moment you uprate the front. The XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the Bmw 3 Series E 92 330 (OE160) restores that balance, giving the coupe’s rear axle the bite and heat capacity it needs for repeated hard stops.
This is a rear-specific kit aimed at owners who track or fast-road their E92 330 and have found the standard rear discs glazing or fading after a few committed laps. It pairs a pair of larger two-piece floating discs with a pair of multi-piston calipers and a choice of pad compound, so the rear contributes properly to overall stopping rather than simply following the front.
What this brake kit does for your 2007-2011 Bmw 3 Series E 92 330 (OE160)
On the road you get a firmer, more progressive pedal and a rear end that stays planted under braking instead of squirming as worn standard discs lose grip. On track, the larger rear disc shrugs off heat across a session, holding brake bias steady so the E92 turns in predictably under trail braking. Three pad compounds let you match the kit to use: Street for quiet, low-dust daily driving, Sport for spirited fast-road work, and Racing for circuit days where rotor temperatures climb fast. On a car carrying as much mass as the E92 coupe, the extra rear thermal headroom matters more than most owners expect once ABS and DSC start working hard.
About the rear brake kit
This big brake upgrade is configured specifically for the rear axle of the E92 330. A big brake kit works by increasing swept area and pad volume: the larger two-piece floating disc and bigger caliper give more material to absorb and shed heat, which is what keeps the pedal consistent when the standard setup would already be cooking. The floating ring expands on its alloy bell to stay flat under heat, and the hollow-vane casting trims rotating and unsprung mass. The kit is supplied as a bolt-on caliper, disc and pad package for the rear axle, with the mounting hardware to suit. Pad compound is selectable across Street, Sport and Racing options, so the same kit can be specified for a daily-driven coupe or a dedicated track car. The disc face comes drilled or slotted at the same price, and the caliper is hollow-cast as standard with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use. Caliper finish is offered in painted Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with premium polished-forged, candy and Custom Pantone options to match your build.

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 330–356mm (rear). 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.
