XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Mercedes Benz C CLASS W202 C 320 (1993-2000)

The W202 arrived in 1993 as the first Mercedes to carry the C-Class name, and its multi-link rear axle was tuned for refined, comfort-biased road manners rather than repeat heavy braking. On a C 320, with the larger six sitting up front and most of the original braking effort handled at the nose, the rear axle is the first to feel out of its depth once you start leaning on the car. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz C Class W202 C 320 (1993-2000) is built to correct that imbalance.

This is a rear-axle upgrade aimed at fast-road and spirited use, supplied as a matched pair of rear calipers and discs to restore front-to-rear braking balance on a chassis that was never given much rear stopping power from the factory. It bolts to the W202’s existing hub geometry and lets you specify pad compound and caliper finish to match how the car is actually used.

What this brake kit does for your 1993-2000 Mercedes Benz C Class W202 C 320

The clearest gain is a firmer, more progressive pedal that holds its feel as the brakes heat up, so the rear axle keeps contributing instead of fading out and shoving all the work forward. Better thermal headroom at the back means the car settles more predictably on corner entry, which matters on a soft-sprung W202 that already likes to pitch onto its nose under load. The two-piece floating discs use hollow vanes to keep rotating mass in check at the rear hub. The three pad compounds let you set the bite to suit the job: Street for everyday driving, Sport for harder fast-road use, and Racing for sustained track sessions. Included caliper finishes run Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, so the upgrade reads as deliberate behind the wheels rather than an afterthought.

About the Hollow rear brake kit

The Hollow rear kit is a matched disc-and-caliper package designed specifically for the rear axle, not a generic adaptor set. It pairs a two-piece floating disc with a fixed-mount caliper to raise clamping consistency over the standard sliding setup, and the hollow-vane construction keeps rotating mass in check at the rear hub. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade – dust-cover-free, rated to 1000C, with a two-year warranty – for cars that see real circuit time. Pad choice is central to the kit: Street, Sport and Racing compounds cover the full span from quiet daily duty to repeated high-temperature stops, so you specify the friction level rather than accepting a one-size fit. Included caliper colours run Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone for £150, plus premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Discs are drilled or slotted at the same price, with two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours or titanium selectable at checkout. Everything is sized around the W202 rear corner so the kit works as a complete, balanced rear upgrade.
