Caliper render for this kit:

The F30 320i carries its mass well forward of the cabin and runs a modest single-piston sliding caliper at the rear, specified for a comfortable saloon rather than for repeated heavy stops. The XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the BMW 3 Series F30 320i (OE185) goes straight at that weak point, giving the rear axle the thermal headroom and pedal consistency the standard hardware runs short of once you start braking from real speed.
Rear braking matters more on this car than most owners assume. It sets how the F30 settles on turn-in and stops the fronts from carrying the entire load on a long descent or a busy track session. This kit fits a pair of two-piece floating discs and a pair of larger calipers to the rear of the 320i, with a choice of pad compound so the back of the car stays planted when you brake late.
What this big brake kit does for your 2012-2018 BMW 3 Series F30 320i
The lightweight rotor design trims rotating mass at the wheel, which the F30 320i feels as slightly quicker response and less drag on the rear axle. The larger disc and caliper add surface area and heat capacity, so the pedal holds firm through consecutive stops instead of going long as the standard rear disc heats up. Three pad compounds let you match the car to its job: Street for quiet, low-dust town and motorway use, Sport for fast-road bite from cold, and Racing for sustained track temperatures. The result is a more balanced car under braking, with the rear staying composed rather than nervous as you load the front. Caliper finishes run from painted Red, Yellow and Gold through Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, so the look behind the wheel matches the build.
About the rear brake kit
The XYZ Racing kit is built around a two-piece floating disc that reduces unsprung and rotating weight without giving up rotor diameter. The friction ring floats on its alloy bell to stay flat under heat where a fixed solid rotor would distort, and the disc face is available drilled or slotted at the same price. It pairs that disc with an upsized caliper matched to the rear corner of the F30, lifting both clamping force and the amount of heat the assembly can absorb and shed before fade sets in. The system is supplied with a choice of three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, so the same hardware suits a daily 320i or a car that sees regular track time. Painted caliper colour finishes, Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, are included, with premium polished-forged, candy and Custom Pantone routes alongside, and the caliper is hollow-cast as standard with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use. It is a complete rear upgrade aimed at owners who want more braking substance from the 320i without changing how the car behaves day to day.

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.
