Caliper render for this kit:
The W204 generation C-Class marked a genuine step forward for Mercedes in driver engagement, with rear-wheel drive, a longitudinal V6, and a chassis finally willing to be pushed rather than simply pointed. The C 300 produces enough power to make hard stops a regular part of spirited driving, and on a sustained fast-road run or track day the factory front brake hardware eventually reaches the ceiling of what it was designed to handle.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit is specified for the 2007-2014 Mercedes Benz C CLASS W204 C 300. It is a front-axle kit, a matched pair of left and right calipers and two-piece floating discs. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, plus a full range of caliper finishes, allow buyers to configure the kit to their exact use case, from an improved daily setup through to a proper circuit specification.
What this brake kit does for your 2007-2014 Mercedes Benz C CLASS W204 C 300
Front brakes on the W204 C 300 carry a significant proportion of deceleration load; the engine-forward layout concentrates mass at the nose, meaning the front corner works harder than the balanced chassis feel might suggest. The hollow-vane disc at the centre of this kit manages heat through the disc’s cross-section more consistently than the standard vented hardware, pushing back the fade point that original equipment reaches under repeated hard stops. Reduced rotating and unsprung mass quickens response, and the two-piece floating construction controls expansion. Street delivers cleaner, more progressive bite on the road without needing warm-up cycles; Sport adds the thermal headroom required for occasional track sessions without the cold-operating-range compromise of a full race pad; Racing provides the sustained, temperature-dependent performance needed when the car is driven at its limit in anger. Braided lines firm the pedal throughout.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit takes its name from a hollow-vane disc that improves heat dispersal through the disc material compared to a conventional vented design, paired with a hollow-bodied caliper as standard. The front-axle package is supplied with caliper, disc and pad as a configured unit, with compound grade and caliper finish both selected at order. The structured compound ladder, Street, Sport and Racing, means the same hardware serves a C 300 used primarily on road and one that sees regular track days, without requiring a complete re-specification. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and an optional Hollow Racing caliper upgrade for serious track use drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty.
Caliper finish is chosen when you order. Five painted colours are included at no extra cost: Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black. A Custom Color in any Pantone is £150, with premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, plus candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours, or titanium, are selectable at checkout, accommodating builds where the hardware is part of the aesthetic brief as much as the functional one.
Fitment for the Mercedes Benz C CLASS W204 C 300 (2007-2014)
This front brake kit is specified for the Mercedes Benz C Class W204 C 300 across the full 2007 to 2014 production run, covering both saloon and estate body styles. Buyers should confirm their existing front disc diameter and check for any factory brake package upgrades on their specific car; AMG Sport and optional brake packages were available across the W204 range and may affect fitment compatibility. This kit covers the front axle only.

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.
