XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Honda CR-V MK4 (2012-2016)

The CR-V MK4 carries its mass high and well forward, so the rear axle usually plays a supporting role, until you load the boot, hook up a trailer, or string together a long Alpine descent. That is when the standard rear setup starts to show its limits, and where the XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the Honda CR-V MK4 earns its place.

This is a pair of rear calipers and discs, left and right, built to add thermal headroom and bite to a 1.6-tonne crossover that was never conceived as a track tool. Two-piece floating discs trim rotating mass at the back wheels, while a choice of Street, Sport or Racing pad compound lets you match the kit to how you actually use the car.

What this brake kit does for your 2012-2016 Honda CR-V MK4

Fit this kit and the first thing you feel is a firmer, more confident pedal when the car is loaded. The CR-V MK4’s tall body throws weight rearward under hard braking, and a stronger rear setup helps the back axle take its share rather than leaving the fronts to scrub off all the speed. The hollow-vane discs lower rotating and unsprung mass at each rear corner, which sharpens how quickly the wheels respond and lightens the load on the suspension. On long downhill runs or while towing, the extra heat capacity holds fade at bay where the original discs would be cooking. Choose the Racing compound for serious bite on spirited drives, Sport for harder road use with a wider heat range, or the Street pad to keep things quiet and clean for the daily commute. Braided lines keep the pedal firm as it all warms.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

XYZ Racing builds this kit around two-piece floating discs with hollow internal vanes, where material is removed from the disc structure itself to cut weight without sacrificing swept area. Less rotating mass at the rear wheels means the brakes take on and shed heat more readily, and the suspension has less inertia to manage over rough surfaces. The package comes with three pad compounds: Street for quiet, low-dust everyday driving, Sport for harder road use with stronger initial bite, and Racing for repeated heavy stops where pad stability matters most. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for hard use that loses the dust cover, takes a 1000C rating and carries a two-year warranty. Calipers are finished in a choice of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a custom Pantone option and premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) or candy (Teal, Blue, Red, Orange) finishes, so the upgrade reads as deliberate behind an open wheel. It is a rear-specific kit, designed to complement the front brakes and rebalance how a nose-heavy CR-V MK4 sheds speed under load.

Fitment for the Honda CR-V MK4 (2012-2016)

This kit is cut specifically for the fourth-generation Honda CR-V, covering the 2012 to 2016 model years. It mounts to the rear axle and is sized to the MK4’s hub and caliper geometry, so there is no guesswork over clearance.
