XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Bmw 6 SERIES E 64 (INCLUDING M6) (2004-2010)

The E64 is the convertible 6 Series, and it carries the consequences of that choice: a folding soft-top body that surrenders the coupe’s structural rigidity while stacking extra mass high in the chassis. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit targets the rear axle of this heavy grand tourer, where a 1,900kg-plus cabriolet leans hard on its brakes every time you wash speed off a motorway cruise or a committed B-road.

On the M6 version the S85 V10 and its near-500bhp turn the E64 into a genuinely fast GT, and the rear brakes have to balance that pace rather than simply trail behind the fronts. This rear brake kit – a pair of left and right rear calipers and two-piece floating discs – is built to keep the back axle settled through repeated heavy stops, instead of going long and wooden the way tired factory discs do once heat builds in a heavy droptop.

What this rear brake kit does for your 2004-2010 BMW 6 Series E 64 (including M6)

The first thing you feel is a firmer, more predictable pedal that holds its bite as the rear discs heat-soak on a fast run, with the braided lines reinforcing that feel. Rear braking stability matters on a tail-heavy convertible like the E64, and a kit sized for the car’s mass keeps the back end planted under trail-braking rather than nervous. Three pad compounds let you set the car up for how you actually drive it: Street for relaxed road use, Sport for harder fast-road work and occasional track days, and Racing for sustained track sessions where rear temperatures climb and stay high. On the M6 in particular, that thermal headroom is the difference between consistent retardation and a rear axle that fades before the corner arrives.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The Hollow rear brake kit is XYZ Racing’s two-piece floating disc approach to upgrading the back axle on heavy performance cars. The friction ring on its alloy bell is aimed at shedding rotating and unsprung mass at the rear, which helps the suspension follow the road surface more faithfully and reduces the inertia the brakes have to manage, and discs can be specified drilled or slotted at the same price. The kit pairs the rear discs with XYZ Racing calipers – hollow-cast as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use that drops the dust cover for a 1000C rating and a two-year warranty – painted at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black so the setup matches the car behind the wheels. Beyond the included colours, you can specify Custom Color in any Pantone for £150, premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, or candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange, with centre bells upgradeable to two-tone anodized in five colours or to titanium. Pad choice spans Street, Sport and Racing compounds, giving you a single hardware platform that can be tuned from a comfortable road bias to a hard-use track specification. It is engineered specifically as a rear-axle upgrade rather than a one-size answer, which is why fitment is tied to the chassis.
