XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Audi Q8 QUATTRO (2019-2026)

The Audi Q8 Quattro carries well over two tonnes across its MLB Evo underpinnings, and most of that mass piles onto the rear axle the moment you lean on the brakes from motorway speed. The standard rear setup is fine on the school run, but it starts to feel vague after a few hard stops down an Alpine pass, or when an SQ8’s torque has been working the chassis all afternoon. This XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the 2019-2026 Q8 goes straight at that problem: more rotor, more thermal headroom, and a two-piece floating disc that trims rotating mass behind the car’s large factory wheels.

It is a rear-axle upgrade for owners who actually use the Q8’s performance: long descents, repeated heavy braking, the odd track or hillclimb day. Run alongside a front kit it rebalances how the car sheds speed; on its own it sharpens pedal feel and gives the rear something solid to lean on when quattro and the stability system are shuffling braking force.

What this brake kit does for your 2019-2026 Audi Q8 Quattro

On a vehicle this heavy, the gain you notice first is fade resistance. The larger rear rotor absorbs more heat before the pedal goes long, so the tenth stop from speed behaves like the first. The hollow-vane disc construction sheds rotating mass at the corner, taking a small edge off the unsprung weight the dampers have to control over broken UK B-roads. Pad compound is your call: the Street compound stays quiet and low-dust for daily driving, the Sport compound adds bite and heat range for fast road and occasional track, and the Racing compound copes with the temperatures a 2.2-tonne Q8 generates on a circuit. Braided lines keep the pedal firm as the fluid warms. Behind the Q8’s large factory wheels the uprated forged caliper looks the part too, and you can match it to the car in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, or a custom Pantone finish.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit is XYZ Racing’s rear-axle big brake package, built around a larger-diameter two-piece floating disc and a forged caliper in place of the standard rear brake. The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, cutting rotating and unsprung mass while the vane structure opens cooling paths through the disc, so heat leaves the rotor faster between applications. Three pad compounds cover the range of use: a Street compound for quiet, low-dust road driving, a Sport compound for spirited road and light track work, and a Racing compound for sustained high-temperature abuse. The caliper ships in five included finishes, from factory-look Black and Anodized Black through Red, Yellow and Gold, with a custom Pantone option. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to two-tone anodized in five colours or titanium when you order. As a rear-specific kit it is set up to work with the Q8 Quattro’s brake balance rather than overwhelm it, so the SUV still stops square under hard pedal.

Fitment for the Audi Q8 Quattro (2019-2026)

This kit is mapped to the quattro Audi Q8 across the 2019 to 2026 model years. It is a rear-axle fitment, a pair of rear calipers and discs, designed to mount to the Q8’s existing hubs and sit within the factory wheel clearance. Confirm your build year and wheel size against your own spec before ordering.
