XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Bmw 5 SERIES E 34 535 (1988-1996)

The E34 535i puts its M30 "big six" over the nose and a genuine slug of executive-saloon mass behind the driver, and that weight has to be shed every time the road tightens or an autobahn cruise meets a slip road. The standard rear brakes on a car this heavy run short of thermal headroom once you start using them in anger, and the pedal goes long. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the BMW 5 Series E34 535 attacks that directly, adding rear braking capacity and consistency to a chassis that was always happier covering ground than scrubbing it off.

Rear bias matters more on a long-wheelbase saloon than people expect. Get the back axle doing its share and the E34 stays settled under hard braking instead of pitching onto its nose, exactly what this rear big brake kit, a pair of left and right rear calipers and matched discs, is built to deliver for fast-road and track-day use.

What this brake kit does for your 1988-1996 BMW 5 Series E34 535

After fitting, the first thing you feel is a firmer, more repeatable pedal once temperatures climb. The two-piece floating disc design trims rotating and unsprung mass at the rear, which sharpens how quickly the back axle responds and takes load off the dampers. Three pad compounds let you match the kit to how the car is used: Street for quiet, low-dust road manners, Sport for harder fast-road work with occasional track use, and Racing for sustained circuit sessions where fade is the enemy. Brake balance improves front to rear, so the heavy E34 stops squarer and tracks straighter when you lean on it from speed.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit is a rear-axle package, a pair of left and right rear calipers built around lightweight two-piece floating discs sized for the E34’s kerb weight. The disc design saves mass without giving up swept area, helping the rear brakes shed heat and resist the fade that catches out standard discs on a heavy saloon. 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. You choose the pad compound, Street, Sport or Racing, so the same hardware suits a refined road car or a weekend track tool. Caliper finish is yours to set too, with the included painted colours of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no cost, plus a Custom Color in any Pantone, so the kit can sit discreetly behind the wheels or stand out as part of a wider build. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, with centre-bell upgrades selectable at checkout. It is a focused rear-only upgrade designed to restore the braking confidence a 1988-1996 535i deserves.
