XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Bmw 3 SERIES E 90 M3 (2007-2011)

The E90 M3 carries a 4.0-litre S65 V8 over its front axle and drives the rear wheels, so the back brakes spend much of their working life managing weight transfer rather than scrubbing the headline speed. XYZ Racing’s Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the BMW 3 Series E90 M3 (2007-2011) swaps the factory rear assembly for a larger, lighter setup that keeps the car settled when the standard discs start to heat-soak.

This is the rear half of the braking equation on the saloon-bodied M3, the four-door that hides a rev-hungry V8 behind an unassuming boot lid. Push one hard on track or a committed B-road and the rear axle needs discs that recover between stops and hold a steady bite under trail braking. Supplied as a left-and-right pair, that is the job this kit is built around.

What this big brake kit does for your 2007-2011 BMW 3 Series E90 M3

The headline gain is heat capacity. A larger rear disc gives the M3 more thermal mass to soak up repeated heavy stops, so the pedal stays firm deep into a session instead of going long as the fluid and friction surfaces cook. The two-piece floating disc and its hollow-vane rotor trim rotating and unsprung weight at the rear, which sharpens how quickly the axle responds to direction changes and takes load off the dampers. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you match the rear bite to how the car is actually used, from quiet, low-dust road miles to full track abuse. Because the caliper comes in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black or a Custom Color, the upgrade reads as cleanly through the spokes as it performs.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

This is a bolt-on rear big brake upgrade engineered around the E90 M3’s rear hubs rather than a universal part forced to fit, and supplied as a pair. The defining feature is the two-piece floating disc, whose hollow-vane rotor sheds rotating mass while keeping a large swept area for heat management. The hollow-body caliper clamps a wider, thicker rotor than the factory item, raising the temperature ceiling before fade sets in. Pad material is a choice rather than a fixed spec: the Street compound suits quiet road use, the Sport compound adds bite for fast-road and occasional track work, and the Racing compound is there for sustained circuit sessions. Disc faces can be drilled or slotted at the same price, caliper finishes cover everything from a discreet Black through to a louder Gold or a Custom Color in any Pantone, and a Hollow Racing caliper upgrade rated to 1000C is on hand for dedicated competition use.
