XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Bmw X5 E70 (2006-2013)

At well over two tonnes, the E70 X5 loads its rear axle harder than almost any saloon-based platform, and the standard rear discs show it: heat-soaked after a long descent, soft underfoot after repeated stops from motorway speed. This XYZ Racing rear big brake kit for the BMW X5 E70 adds thermal capacity exactly where the factory setup runs thin, as a matched left-and-right pair of rear calipers and discs.

It is built for owners who use the car the way it was sold to be used: towing, loaded family miles, the occasional fast B-road, or in X5 M form a genuinely quick 2.3-tonne SUV. More swept area and better cooling at the back mean the brakes recover between applications instead of stacking heat.

What this brake kit does for your 2006-2013 BMW X5 E70

On the road you feel it first as a firmer, more consistent pedal. The rear no longer sinks toward the floor once the discs are hot. The hollow-vane disc design sheds heat faster, and the lighter two-piece construction trims rotating and unsprung mass at each rear corner, which a heavy SUV notices over broken surfaces and through quick direction changes. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you match the rear bias to how you actually drive, from quiet low-dust daily commuting to sustained high-load work. Matching the rear compound to the front keeps the brake balance honest under trail braking. Paired with the larger rear discs and the braided lines in the kit, the X5 pulls up shorter and holds that braking performance far longer on a downhill run.

About the rear big brake kit

This is a bolt-on rear upgrade built around XYZ Racing’s two-piece floating disc, with an internally cored hollow-vane braking ring and an uprated caliper, sized up over the factory rear brake to increase swept area and heat capacity. The cored rotor draws heat out of the disc face quickly while keeping rotating mass down, the two things a two-tonne-plus X5 punishes most, and the floating bell lets the ring grow under heat without distorting. The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard; for hard track use the Hollow Racing upgrade removes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Painted caliper finishes come in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with premium polished-forged and candy options for those who want them, so the kit can sit discreetly behind the wheel or stand out behind an open spoke. The three-stage pad choice, Street, Sport and Racing, means the same hardware suits a towing diesel, a fast-road petrol, or a tracked X5 M without changing the kit itself. Discs are offered drilled or slotted at the same price, and the centre bell can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized colour or titanium. Everything here is specified for the rear axle of this chassis.
