Fits Bmw 4 SERIES F 32 (OE161) (2013-2020)

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 Rear Brake Kit — Bmw 4 SERIES F 32 (OE161) (2013-2020) — 330 mm
330 mm

The F32 4 Series carries most of its braking load onto the front axle, which is exactly why the rears get neglected and then cook first on a track day. Repeated heavy stops glaze the standard rear pads, the discs heat-soak, and the DSC starts trimming corner-exit drive because it can no longer trust what the back of the car is doing. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the BMW 4 Series F 32 (OE161) tackles that head-on with a lighter two-piece floating disc and a stiffer caliper that bring back consistent rear bite.

This is a rear big brake kit, a pair of left and right rear calipers designed to balance a front upgrade rather than carry the car on its own. You match it to how you drive with three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, and finish the calipers in the included painted colours to suit the build.

What this brake kit does for your 2013-2020 BMW 4 Series F 32 (OE161)

Shedding rotating and unsprung mass at the rear axle is something the F32 feels as a back end that settles faster over mid-corner bumps and a car that rotates more willingly on the brakes. The kit’s caliper holds the pad square against the disc, so the pedal stays firm deep into a braking zone instead of going long as the fluid heats. Fit the Racing compound and the rear brakes hold up across a full session without fade; the Sport pad adds bite for fast-road work with the odd track day; the Street pad keeps strong cold bite, quiet manners and lower dust for daily use. The result is a 4 Series that brakes square, with brake balance front and rear that lets you trail the brake later into a corner without the rear stepping out of line.

About the Hollow Big Brake Kit

The kit is built around a two-piece floating disc, cast with internal voids that cut weight while keeping the swept area and thermal mass needed to absorb repeat stops. Running it on the rear axle restores brake balance front-to-rear once a bigger front setup has shifted the bias forward. The three-stage pad menu means one hardware kit covers a road car, a fast-road car and a track car: Street for stock feel and low dust, Sport for harder fast-road performance, and Racing for heat tolerance under sustained load. The caliper body is hollow as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use, no dust cover, rated to 1000C and backed by a two-year warranty. The included painted caliper finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone available so the kit reads as deliberate behind the wheels rather than an afterthought. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, with centre-bell upgrades selectable at checkout. Everything is sized to the F32’s rear hub and disc geometry rather than adapted from a generic fitment.

Fitment for the BMW 4 Series F 32 (OE161)

This kit is cut for the F32-generation BMW 4 Series, referenced to the OE161 disc, across the full 2013 to 2020 production run. Confirm your chassis code reads F32 and check the rear disc reference matches OE161 before ordering. Pad compound and caliper colour are selected when you order.

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.
