XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Bmw X1 F48 (2016-2026)

The F48 X1 carries its mass high and forward, and BMW’s UKL-based crossover leans on its rear axle far less than the front every time you brake. That standard bias is fine for the school run, but lean on the car down a B-road or across a track day and the rears run short of thermal headroom long before the chassis runs out of grip. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the BMW X1 F48 (2016-2026) exists to claw that balance back.

This is rear-axle hardware for owners who want repeatable stopping power rather than one good stop followed by a soft pedal. The hollow-vane disc trims rotating mass where it counts, and the kit is supplied with a choice of Street, Sport or Racing pad compounds so rear bite can be matched to how the car is actually driven.

What this brake kit does for your 2016-2026 Bmw X1 F48

After fitting, the first thing you notice is a firmer, more progressive rear pedal under trail braking, genuinely useful on a nose-led platform like the X1, where moving more retardation rearward settles the tail into a corner instead of letting the front edge wash wide. The hollow-vane disc cuts rotating and unsprung mass at the rear hubs, sharpening how quickly the axle responds over mid-corner bumps, while the two-piece floating build keeps each disc true as it heats. Move up to the Sport compound for a wider heat range, or the Racing compound for real fade resistance through repeated heavy stops, so the rear keeps biting on a long alpine descent or back-to-back sessions; the Street pad stays quiet and low-dust for daily use. Caliper finish is yours to set so the upgrade reads as deliberate behind the wheels.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit is XYZ Racing’s rear-axle stopping package for the F48 X1, named for the lightened, hollow-vane two-piece disc that strips rotating mass without giving up swept area. It is a rear-position kit, supplied as a matched left-and-right pair with braided lines and brackets, engineered to complement rather than overwhelm the standard front brakes and to restore front-to-rear balance on a platform set up conservatively from the factory. Three pad compounds anchor the range: a Street compound for cleaner, lower-dust everyday use; a Sport compound that bites harder once it has heat in it for fast-road work and a wider temperature window; and a Racing compound for track and time-attack running where peak temperatures climb hard. The caliper is a hollow-body unit as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing version rated to 1000C and a two-year warranty for serious track use. 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, so the kit can sit with an existing build palette. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and two-tone anodized or titanium centre bells are selectable. The emphasis throughout is consistent rear bite under heat rather than a single headline figure.

Fitment for the Bmw X1 F48 (2016-2026)

This kit is cut specifically for the second-generation BMW X1, the F48 chassis, across the full 2016 to 2026 production run. It is a rear-axle fitment, so it bolts to the rear hubs and is designed to work alongside the car’s existing front brakes. Confirm your chassis code reads F48 before ordering, as the earlier E84 X1 uses different rear geometry and is not the same fit.
