Caliper render for this kit:
Carrying a second-generation C4 Picasso with four passengers and luggage loaded aboard shifts the car’s stopping demands well beyond what manufacturers engineer for a solo driver on an empty road. At roughly 1,400kg kerb, the front-wheel-drive layout puts the front brakes under sustained pressure in every deceleration scenario, and that load compounds with payload. This XYZ Racing front big brake kit upgrades the front-axle hardware directly with a matched pair of calipers and discs, sharpening pedal response and broadening the performance envelope beyond the factory specification.
Three pad compound options, Street, Sport or Racing, are selected at the same time as the caliper colour. Sport compound extends the operating temperature window above OEM pads, which matters on a loaded C4 Picasso descending a long gradient or braking repeatedly in heavy motorway traffic. The included caliper colours, Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, make the upgrade visible through whatever alloys the car is wearing.
What this brake kit does for your 2013-2022 Citroen C4 Picasso
Front-wheel drive puts the braking bias firmly at the nose, and the C4 Picasso’s design, wide track, a relatively low roofline for an MPV, nose-forward weight distribution, reinforces that effect. The two-piece floating discs evacuate heat fast and expand under temperature without distorting, and braided stainless lines keep the pedal firm where heat would swell a stock rubber line. Sport compound pads lift the fade threshold beyond what a road pad manages on a sustained descent, keeping the pedal firm on the kind of driving where a fully loaded family car is working harder than a lightly laden sports car. The Street compound covers quiet, low-dust daily duty, and the Racing compound option opens the door to higher-performance use without requiring a separate parts purchase later. The full caliper finish range, including premium and candy routes, allows the hardware to integrate visually with the rest of the car’s specification rather than remaining an anonymous grey.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
The XYZ Racing series sits between the factory option and a full motorsport specification, designed to deliver a meaningful step in feel and fade resistance while remaining compatible with everyday driving. The vented two-piece floating discs come drilled or slotted at the same price. Pad compound is selected when you order: Street for improved response without significantly altering brake character, Sport for a wider operating temperature window and more bite, Racing for drivers with more demanding intentions. The calipers are hollow-body as standard for low corner weight, with the Hollow Racing caliper available as an upgrade for serious track use, no dust cover, rated to 1000C and a two-year warranty. Caliper finish runs from the no-cost painted options of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black through Custom Color, any Pantone for a set fee, plus premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange) finishes, all confirmed when you order. Two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours, or titanium, are selectable at checkout. The kit targets the C4 Picasso’s front axle, addressing the position that carries the greatest braking load on this front-biased FWD platform throughout the 2013 to 2022 production run.
Fitment for the Citroen C4 Picasso (2013-2022)

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 286–380mm (front). 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.
