At close to two tonnes before passengers and luggage, the MQ4-generation Sorento asks a lot of its rear axle every time the road drops away or a trailer is hitched behind it. This rear big brake kit gives Kia’s largest SUV more thermal headroom at the back, so the rear pads keep biting through a long motorway descent or a loaded run home from the airport instead of fading and dumping the work onto the fronts.
This is a rear-axle upgrade for owners who use the Sorento as it was built to be used: full of people, often towing, and covering big mileage. The two-piece floating discs trim rotating mass while opening up more surface for heat to escape, and three pad compounds let you match the bite to how hard the car actually works.
What this brake kit does for your 2023-2026 Kia Sorento (MQ4)
On a vehicle this heavy and this nose-led, a stronger rear axle does quiet, important work: it shares the braking load the fronts would otherwise shoulder alone, which steadies the car under hard stops and stops the nose diving as sharply. You feel it most when the Sorento is loaded, the pedal staying firmer and more consistent rather than going long after repeated braking. The hollow-vane rotors shed heat faster, so a fully laden descent down a mountain pass or a steep slip road stops cooking the rear pads. Choose the Racing compound and the rear end holds up to sustained heavy use; the Sport compound covers harder road work; the Street compound keeps things quieter and the wheels cleaner for the daily school run. Either way, braking distances tighten and the car settles more predictably when you need to wash off speed in a hurry.
About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit
XYZ Racing’s rear brake kit is a bolt-on pair designed specifically for the rear axle of the MQ4 Sorento. The two-piece floating disc is the headline: its hollow-vane casting is lightened internally to cut unsprung and rotating weight while giving heat a larger path to dissipate, which is what keeps performance steady when the brakes are worked hard. The kit pairs that disc with a fixed caliper and a choice of three friction levels: a Street compound for everyday driving, a Sport compound for keener fast-road response, and a full Racing compound for track or heavy-tow duty. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for the hardest use that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Calipers are painted at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black, with a Custom Color in any Pantone for £150 and premium polished-forged (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) or candy (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange) finishes to suit the build. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, with two-tone anodized or titanium centre bells selectable at checkout. It is a complete rear pair rather than a pad-and-disc swap, built to lift braking capacity without changing how the car behaves day to day.
Fitment for the Kia Sorento (MQ4) (2023-2026)
This kit is built for the MQ4-generation Kia Sorento across the 2023 to 2026 model years and fits the rear axle as a pair of calipers and discs. Confirm your car is on the MQ4 platform before ordering, then select your caliper colour and pad compound to match your intended use. Front kits are listed separately if you want to upgrade both axles together.

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 330–356mm (rear). 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.
