Fits Bmw 3 SERIES E 91 335 (OE160) (2006-2011)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Bmw 3 SERIES E 91 335 (OE160) (2006-2011) — 330 mm
330 mm

The E91 335 Touring carries noticeably more mass over its rear axle than the saloon or coupe it shares a chassis with, and the factory rear discs were never specified for the kind of repeated hard stops that 300-plus twin-turbo horsepower invites on a fast B-road or a track-day session. This XYZ Racing rear brake kit is the answer for owners who have outgrown OE rear braking on the estate.

Fitted to the 2006-2011 335 (OE160), it brings a pair of larger, better-ventilated rear discs and a pair of fixed calipers that resist the fade an N54-powered wagon will find on the standard setup. The two-piece floating disc sheds rotating mass at the rear axle, which matters on a car that already feels nose-led under threshold braking.

What this brake kit does for your 2006-2011 Bmw 3 Series E 91 335 (OE160)

After fitting, the first thing you feel is a firmer, more linear rear pedal that holds its bite as heat builds. The bigger rear rotor gives the back axle more thermal headroom, so brake balance stays consistent through a sequence of corners rather than going long after two or three hard stops. Pad compound is your call: Street keeps dust and noise sensible for daily Touring duties, Sport adds bite and heat range for fast-road and the odd track day, and Racing is there when the car sees serious circuit use. Caliper colour comes in painted Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with premium and custom finishes available too.

About the rear brake kit

The kit pairs an uprated two-piece floating disc with a rigid fixed caliper to cut flex and improve pedal feel under load. The floating ring expands on its alloy bell to stay flat under heat, while the hollow-vane rotor construction trims unsprung and rotating weight at the rear, aiding both heat management and response. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you match the kit to road, fast-road or track use without changing hardware. The disc face can be drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell upgraded to two-tone anodized or titanium. The caliper is hollow-cast as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use. It is built as a direct-fit rear upgrade rather than a universal bracket bodge, so the geometry suits the 335’s rear hub.

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.
