Fits Honda ACCORD 2.0 (2008-2012)

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 Front Brake Kit — Honda ACCORD 2.0 (2008-2012) — 304 mm
304 mm

The eighth-generation Accord 2.0 carries more mass than its clean saloon lines imply. The CU2 sits around 1,440 kg kerb weight, and the i-VTEC engine’s willingness to rev hard into the top of the range consistently draws drivers deeper into braking zones than the standard front circuit was designed to handle repeatedly. The XYZ Racing front big brake kit is a direct front-axle upgrade that addresses the thermal and performance limits of the factory setup where an FWD platform concentrates its greatest braking load.

Three pad compounds let the kit be configured to match actual use, from daily performance through to circuit work. A caliper finished to your choice gives the hardware a considered presence through the spokes rather than looking like an afterthought.

What this brake kit does for your 2008-2012 Honda ACCORD 2.0

On a front-wheel-drive car, the front brakes carry a disproportionate share of the stopping load. Upgrading the rear first on the Accord 2.0 barely registers in pedal feel; upgrading the front is where fade resistance, initial bite, and overall braking confidence all shift perceptibly. The hollow-vane disc draws heat away from the disc face more efficiently than the stock setup, keeping brake temperatures in check during the kind of repeated hard applications that progressively glaze factory pads or soften pedal feel on a car this weight. Discs are offered drilled or slotted at the same price.

Choose the Racing compound and the Accord 2.0 gains a front brake circuit capable of sustaining repeated hard use without the progressive softening that owners running original equipment invariably notice by the second track session.

About the front big brake kit

The disc’s internal vane geometry draws air through during rotation, pulling heat from the friction face, extending the working temperature window and reducing pad glazing under sustained load. The kit is front-specific, reflecting the Accord 2.0’s FWD load distribution, the axle where the braking work is done, and ships as a matched pair of front calipers and discs. The caliper is a hollow-body design as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade rated to 1000C, supplied without a dust cover and carrying a two-year warranty, for serious track use.

Three pad compounds cover different operating profiles. Street is the quiet, low-dust everyday default. Sport raises the ceiling for fast-road and occasional circuit driving. Racing is calibrated for track conditions, prioritising consistent bite and fade resistance over easy cold bite in traffic. Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost. A Custom Color in any Pantone is available for an added charge, with premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver and a candy range in Teal, Blue, Red, and Orange above the painted set. Centre bell upgrades are offered in five anodized two-tone colours or titanium, selectable at checkout.

Fitment for the Honda ACCORD 2.0 (2008-2012)

This front brake kit is specified for the Honda Accord 2.0 from 2008 to 2012, covering the eighth-generation CU-series saloon with the 2.0-litre i-VTEC petrol engine, and ships as a matched pair of front calipers and discs. Confirm your vehicle’s front caliper arrangement before ordering; the XYZ Racing product reference is XYZ-BRK-BKF-HO-06-A-FRONT.

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.
