Fits Bmw 8 SERIES G 15 (NON M8) (2018-2026)

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 8 SERIES G 15 (NON M8) (2018-2026) — 380 mm
380 mm

The G15-generation 8 Series carries close to two tonnes of grand-tourer mass on BMW’s CLAR architecture, and most of the braking conversation tends to centre on the front axle. The rear is where heat soak quietly builds, on a long alpine descent, or a string of high-speed motorway stops. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Bmw 8 Series G 15 (NON M8) targets exactly that, giving the back axle a larger, better-ventilated disc that recovers between stops instead of going soft.

This is a rear-specific kit for owners of the 840i, 840d and M850i who want braking balance to match a chassis they are actually leaning on. The hollow-vane disc trims rotational and unsprung mass at each rear corner, and the choice of Street, Sport or Racing pad compounds lets you set the bite to how the car is driven: autobahn GT, fast B-road, or the odd track day.

What this brake kit does for your 2018-2026 Bmw 8 SERIES G 15 (NON M8)

On a car this heavy, the first thing you feel is consistency. The larger hollow-vane rear disc stores and sheds heat more readily than the OE part, and its two-piece floating construction keeps the face true as it heats, so pedal feel stays firm through repeated heavy stops rather than going long and wooden. Cutting unsprung mass at the rear also sharpens how the back axle settles under braking and into turn-in. Pair the Racing compound with the bigger disc and you get stronger initial bite for track sessions; the Sport compound broadens the heat range for fast-road use, while the Street compound keeps things quiet and low-dust for daily driving. Caliper colour lets the kit read through the wheels exactly how you want.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit takes its name from its hollow-vane disc, where the casting removes material from the internal structure without giving up swept friction area. The payoff is a brake that carries less rotational weight while keeping a large surface to dissipate heat, the two things that matter most on a heavy grand tourer. It is engineered as a dedicated rear upgrade, supplied as a matched left-and-right pair of two-piece discs with braided lines and brackets sized for the G15’s standard wheel package and matched to the car’s existing hydraulic circuit. Three pad compounds cover the realistic spread of use: Street for quiet, low-dust manners, Sport for stronger bite with a wider heat range, and Racing for sustained high-temperature work. The caliper is a hollow-body unit as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing version rated to 1000C and a two-year warranty for serious track use. Included painted finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone and premium polished-forged and candy options above that. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and two-tone anodized or titanium centre bells are selectable. Taken together, the components are built to bring the rear axle’s stopping capacity up to the level the front and the chassis can already deliver.

Fitment for the Bmw 8 SERIES G 15 (NON M8) (2018-2026)

This kit is cut for the G15 8 Series in non-M8 specification, the 840i, 840d and M850i, across the 2018 to 2026 model years. It is a rear-axle fitment only; confirm your exact variant and rear wheel clearance before ordering. Front kits are listed separately.

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.
