Caliper render for this kit:
The C 320 4MATIC is the heaviest expression of the W204 chassis; Mercedes’ full-time 4MATIC system carries a genuine weight penalty, and the 3.0-litre V6 block sits well forward of the front axle centreline. Under hard braking, that combination transfers mass into the front discs and pads with considerable force. The standard braking hardware was engineered for the hushed, confidence-building character that Mercedes buyers expect from an executive saloon, not for the heat cycles that accumulate when the car is driven with intent.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit addresses the front axle directly. It is a matched pair of left and right calipers and two-piece floating discs. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let buyers match the setup to how the car is actually used, with caliper finishes from the included painted colours through to premium polished and candy options, covering builds from conservative to more conspicuously modified.
What this brake kit does for your 2007-2014 Mercedes Benz C Class W204 C 320 4MATIC
On the C 320 4MATIC, the front brakes carry more load than on the equivalent rear-wheel-drive W204 variants; the AWD hardware adds mass that has to be decelerated on every stop. This kit replaces the front-end components with hardware rated for harder use. The hollow-vane disc draws heat from the swept face faster than a solid rotor, reduced rotating and unsprung mass quickens response, and the two-piece floating construction controls expansion. The pad compound choice is where the practical difference sits: Street improves bite over OEM with low dust for everyday road driving; Sport handles the additional heat generated during faster-road use where the factory pads begin to show fade; Racing is specified for track-day heat cycles where sustained hard stops are a given. Braided lines firm the pedal throughout.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit is a front-axle upgrade for cars where the standard hardware has been outgrown by the use case. The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, paired with a hollow-vane disc that improves heat dispersal under load. The kit is structured around compound flexibility: three pad specifications cover the range from improved road use (Street) through faster-road driving (Sport) to sustained circuit work (Racing), with the selection confirmed at the point of order. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and an optional Hollow Racing caliper upgrade for serious track work drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. This is a front-only fitment, addressing the axle that bears the heaviest deceleration load in any forward-motion stop, and the compound range means buyers do not arrive at a track day with road-biased pads already fitted.
Caliper finish is confirmed at the same time you select your compound. 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.

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.
