XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Mercedes Benz C CLASS W204 C 220 CDI (2007-2014)

The W204 C 220 CDI carries its mass over the front axle, with a torque-heavy diesel four sitting ahead of the bulkhead. That forward bias leaves the standard rear brakes underworked on the road and short of thermal headroom the moment you start driving the car hard, which is exactly when the back axle should be pulling its weight.

The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz C Class W204 C 220 CDI is a rear-axle upgrade aimed at fast-road and trackday use. Supplied as a matched pair of rear calipers and discs, it restores front-to-rear brake balance and gives the back of this saloon the heat capacity it lacks from the factory, with two-piece floating discs whose hollow vanes trim unsprung mass while a larger swept area lets the rear contribute a proper share of the stopping work.

What this brake kit does for your 2007-2014 Mercedes Benz C Class W204 C 220 CDI

Fitted to a 2007-2014 C 220 CDI, the change shows up as a rear that bites in step with the front instead of trailing it. You get a steadier pedal across repeated stops, more composed body control on the way into a corner as the rear takes load, and noticeably more consistency once the brakes are hot. Three pad compounds let you set the rear to match how the car is used: Street is the quiet, low-dust default, Sport adds bite and heat range for harder mixed driving, and Racing is the full track compound for circuit sessions. Included caliper finishes come in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, so the look behind the wheel suits the build.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow rear brake kit takes its name from its lightweight two-piece disc, whose hollow-vane construction reduces rotating and unsprung mass at the rear axle while improving the disc’s ability to shed heat. The larger rear rotor increases swept area over the standard part, raising thermal capacity so repeated stops do not bleed off pedal feel as quickly. The caliper is hollow-body as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade rated to 1000C and a two-year warranty for serious track use. The kit is offered with three pad compounds – Street for road use, Sport for harder mixed driving, and Racing for circuit work – so the bite and temperature window can be matched to the job. Included caliper finishes 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 come drilled or slotted at the same price, with two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours or titanium selectable at checkout. It is built as a bolt-on rear-axle package for the W204 platform rather than a universal fit, keeping geometry correct for this chassis. The aim throughout is balance: giving the rear of a nose-heavy diesel saloon the braking authority it needs to work with the front rather than behind it.
