XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Kia SOUL (PS) MK2 (2014-2019)

The Kia Soul PS MK2 carries most of its mass over the front axle and brakes accordingly, which leaves the rear discs underworked and the first to feel vague once you start stringing stops together on a fast back road or a downhill run with the family aboard. This XYZ Racing rear brake kit goes straight at that rear axle, replacing the standard setup with a larger, lighter pair of two-piece floating discs designed to keep the back end contributing instead of coasting.

It suits the way these tall, boxy Souls are actually used: a high-roofed compact that hides real kerb weight and a raised centre of gravity, so braking balance matters more here than the upright styling suggests. Get the rear working properly and the whole car settles under pressure.

What this brake kit does for your 2014-2019 Kia SOUL (PS) MK2

The biggest gain is consistency. A bigger rear rotor sheds heat faster, so the pedal stays firm through repeated stops rather than going long when the standard discs start to cook. The hollow-vane disc casting trims rotational and unsprung mass at each rear corner, which helps the rear suspension follow the road and keeps the Soul’s nose-down weight transfer in check. With Racing-compound pads fitted you get sharper initial bite for spirited driving; the Street and Sport compounds keep things quiet and low-dust for the daily commute while stepping up bite when you want it. The caliper sits where you can see it through the wheel, so the finish you pick reads as deliberate rather than aftermarket.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The kit is built around a pair of two-piece floating discs whose hollow-vane casting removes weight from the rotating assembly without giving up swept area. Less rotating mass means the brake heats and cools more evenly and puts less strain on rear wheel bearings and hub over time. It is a rear-axle pair, fitted to complement an uprated front rather than work alone, and it ships with a choice of three pad compounds so the bite can be matched to use: Street for stock-like manners, Sport for a firmer everyday feel, and Racing for hard use. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious use that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Painted finishes are no-cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black, with a Custom Color in any Pantone for £150 and premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) or candy (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange) finishes, letting Soul owners match or contrast the bodywork. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, with two-tone anodized or titanium centre bells selectable at checkout. Everything is sized to the factory rear geometry of this chassis, so the upgrade is about heat management and feel, not a wholesale rethink of the braking system.

Fitment for the Kia SOUL (PS) MK2 (2014-2019)

This kit is cut for the second-generation Soul on the PS chassis code, model years 2014 to 2019, and fits the rear axle as a pair of calipers and discs.
