XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Porsche PANAMERA 970 (2010-2016)

The Panamera 970 hides its mass well, right up until you ask it to stop. Porsche’s first four-door GT carries close to two tonnes in its heavier trims, and that weight lands squarely on the brakes every time you haul it down from a derestricted autobahn or the end of a long, fast straight. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit is built to take that load at the back axle without the fade and long-travel pedal that creep in once the factory steel discs begin to heat-soak.

This is rear-specific hardware, fitted as a matched pair, for owners running their 970 harder than the daily commute: fast-road driving, the occasional track session, or simply a heavy GT that needs honest, repeatable stopping power on demand. The two-piece floating disc trims rotating mass at the rear hubs, and a choice of three pad compounds lets you match bite and operating temperature to how you actually drive the car.

What this brake kit does for your 2010-2016 Porsche Panamera 970

On a car this heavy, rear braking is about composure as much as outright distance: a rear axle that stays settled under hard braking keeps the nose from diving and the tail from stepping out of line. The two-piece floating rotors shed heat faster and carry less rotational mass, so the pedal stays firm through a sequence of hard stops instead of going soft after the first few. The Street pad keeps quiet, low-dust manners for road use; the Sport and Racing compounds add bite and fade resistance as your pace climbs. The net result is a Panamera 970 that feels lighter on its feet when you brake and far more confident when you lean on it from speed.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The Hollow rear brake kit is built around a two-piece floating disc with hollow internal vanes, which removes material from the rotor to cut weight and open up cooling paths through the disc face. Less rotating mass at the rear hub means a touch quicker brake response and a small reduction in unsprung weight, both worthwhile on a GT as heavy as the 970, while the floating mount lets the rotor expand under heat without coning. The kit is engineered for the rear axle and pairs its discs with calipers finished in your choice of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Pantone Custom Color for £150 to suit your build. Disc faces come drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium. Pad choice is where you tune the system to your use – Street for refined road driving, Sport for harder fast-road work, and Racing for the temperatures a track session brings, where fade resistance comes first – and an optional Hollow Racing caliper – no dust cover, rated to 1000C, two-year warranty – is there for hard circuit use. It is a bolt-on upgrade for owners who want stronger, more consistent rear braking than the factory steel setup gives, without committing to a full ceramic system.
