Fits Bmw 7 SERIES E 65 735 (EURO SPEC) (2002-2003)

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 7 SERIES E 65 735 (EURO SPEC) (2002-2003) — 380 mm
380 mm

The E65 735 carries the better part of two tonnes down the road, and a long-wheelbase luxury saloon that heavy asks its rear axle to absorb real heat every time you scrub off a motorway cruise. The factory rear setup was specced for refinement and quiet commuting, not for repeated hard stops with a full cabin or a committed B-road run, and it shows once the discs warm through.

This XYZ Racing Hollow rear brake kit for the BMW 7 Series E 65 735 (Euro Spec) swaps that soft rear end for a lighter, more thermally stable package built to hold a consistent pedal. It is a fast-road and high-speed-cruiser upgrade first, sized to keep the big saloon’s rear balance composed when you lean on it hard.

What this brake kit does for your 2002-2003 BMW 7 Series E 65 735 (Euro Spec)

The first thing you notice is a firmer, more predictable pedal that does not go long after a few heavy applications. The hollow-vane disc sheds rotational and unsprung mass at the rear, which helps the dampers settle and takes a little inertia out of every stop, while the two-piece floating design lets each disc expand under heat without warping. Three pad compounds let you match bite and friction to how you actually use the car: Street for quiet, low-dust daily commuting, Sport for sharper bite and a broader heat range on harder weekend driving, and Racing for sustained circuit temperatures. Because this is a rear-axle kit, it works with the standing weight transfer of a heavy RWD saloon to keep the back end planted under trail braking rather than going light. Caliper finishes set the look behind the wheel.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The Hollow kit takes its name from its hollow-vane disc construction, which removes material to cut weight and open up cooling paths without giving up swept area. Less rotating mass means the rear wheels speed up and slow down with less effort, and the extra airflow helps the discs shrug off the heat a two-tonne car generates on a long descent. The pad menu spans three compounds: a Street pad for refined low-dust road use, a Sport pad for a firmer fast-road bite and wider heat range, and a Racing compound for sustained high-temperature work. The kit fits as a left-and-right rear pair with braided lines and brackets matched to the E65 rear hub geometry for a direct fit. The caliper is a hollow-body unit as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing version rated to 1000C and a two-year warranty for track cars. Included painted finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone and premium polished-forged and candy options above that. Discs are drilled or slotted at the same price, and two-tone anodized or titanium centre bells are selectable, so the kit reads as a deliberate upgrade rather than a like-for-like replacement.

Fitment for the BMW 7 Series E 65 735 (Euro Spec) (2002-2003)

This kit is built for the E65-chassis 7 Series 735 in Euro specification, covering the 2002 to 2003 model years, and fits the rear axle only. Confirm your chassis code and build year against your own car before ordering, and pair it with a matching front kit if you want balanced bite at both ends.

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.
