Caliper render for this kit:

The first-generation CX-5 (KE) does most of its braking on the front axle, which leaves the rear discs working comparatively lightly until the body pitches forward and loads up under a hard stop. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Mazda CX-5 (KE) is aimed squarely at that imbalance, giving the rear of this tall SkyActiv crossover more consistent bite and far better resistance to heat build-up when weight is transferring around.
On a 1.5-tonne SUV that spends real time loaded with people and luggage, rear brake fade on a long descent is the failure you actually notice. This kit is a pair of left and right rear calipers with matched discs, its hollow disc design trimming rotating and unsprung mass at the rear hubs while opening up cooling, so the rear axle stays composed through repeated heavy applications rather than going soft halfway down a pass.
What this brake kit does for your 2013-2014 Mazda CX-5 (KE)
Fitted to the rear of the CX-5 (KE), the kit sharpens initial pedal response and steadies brake balance under load, so the car settles rather than nodding when you brake into a corner with the family aboard. The choice of Street, Sport and Racing pad compounds lets you match the rear bite to how the car is actually used, from school-run duty to spirited B-road work or a loaded motorway haul. The hollow rotor design sheds heat faster than the factory rear discs, which keeps pedal feel firm on long downhill stretches and when towing. The result is a heavy crossover that stops straighter, more predictably, and with more in reserve.
About the Hollow rear brake kit
The XYZ Racing Hollow rear brake kit pairs an upgraded hollow-body caliper with a lightweight two-piece floating disc engineered to manage heat better than a solid OE rear rotor. The hollow internal structure cuts mass at the wheel while increasing the surface area available to dump thermal energy, the two things that govern fade resistance on a heavier vehicle. Discs are offered drilled or slotted at the same price, with two-tone anodized centre bells in five colours or titanium selectable at checkout. Three pad compounds are offered: Street for everyday road use, Sport for harder fast-road driving with a wider heat range, and Racing for the most aggressive duty, so the friction level can be specified to suit the car’s role. The hollow-body caliper is standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade rated to 1000C, no dust cover and a two-year warranty for track use. The caliper is available in the included painted finishes (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black), a Custom Color matched to any Pantone, or the premium polished and candy ranges, letting the rear hardware match the rest of the build behind the wheels.

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.
