XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Hyundai SANTAFE CRDI (2011-2012)

The 2011-2012 Santa Fe CRDI is a heavy, front-biased diesel SUV, and the common-rail engine’s torque means it gathers speed far more easily than its kerb weight wants to shed it. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit targets the axle that standard SUV setups under-serve: the rear, where thermal capacity runs short under a full load, under tow, or on repeated motorway braking.

This is a rear big brake kit built around hollow-vane discs that add thermal mass without piling on unsprung weight. For a family Hyundai that spends much of its life fully laden, on long descents, or hauling a trailer, that combination keeps pedal feel consistent at the point where a smaller rear setup would already be heat-soaked.

What this brake kit does for your 2011-2012 Hyundai Santafe CRDI

After fitting, the first thing you feel on the Santa Fe CRDI is a firmer, more progressive rear bite that steadies the nose-down attitude this front-heavy SUV adopts under hard braking. The larger discs and hollow construction shed heat faster, so a loaded descent or a sustained tow no longer cooks the rear pads into fade. Three pad compounds let you match the kit to use: Street for quiet, low-dust family running, Sport for firmer everyday driving and light towing, and Racing for prolonged heavy-duty heat. The caliper finish sits cleanly behind the wheels, so the upgrade reads as deliberate rather than aftermarket clutter.

About the XYZ Racing Hollow rear brake kit

The Hollow rear brake kit is XYZ Racing’s heat-management answer for heavier vehicles. The discs use a hollow-vane internal structure that increases the surface area working to dissipate heat while trimming the rotating mass each wheel has to accelerate and stop. The two-piece floating rotors run cooler still, and the hollow-bodied caliper is standard across the range. Matched calipers clamp a larger, more thermally stable rotor than the factory rear item, which is exactly where a front-biased SUV like the Santafe CRDI tends to be under-specified once it is asked to do more than commute. The three-stage pad range, Street, Sport and Racing, lets the same hardware suit a school-run diesel or a tow car worked hard on gradients. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price. Calipers are finished in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange, or any Pantone shade as a custom colour. It is a bolt-on rear upgrade aimed at owners who want more consistent stopping from the axle the original setup neglected.
