XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Mercedes Benz CLS 55 AMG C219 (2004-2010)

The CLS 55 AMG’s M113K supercharged 5.4 V8 puts close to two tonnes of four-door coupe in motion, and the rear axle absorbs more of that braking load than most owners expect from a heavy rear-drive Mercedes. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz CLS 55 AMG C219 (2004-2010) goes straight at that problem: rear-axle thermal capacity and pedal consistency when the car is being hustled rather than cruised.

This is a rear-specific upgrade, not a styling swap. The two-piece floating disc sheds heat and unsprung weight, and three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you set the rear bias to how you actually use the C219, from motorway miles to a hard B-road or the occasional track session.

What this brake kit does for your 2004-2010 Mercedes Benz CLS 55 AMG C219

On a car this heavy, fade is the enemy, and it shows up first at the rear under repeated hard stops. The two-piece floating disc faces run cooler, which keeps the rear pedal firm rather than long and vague after a sequence of big braking events. Running the Racing compound at the rear sharpens stopping power and trail-braking stability, the Sport pad covers harder fast-road work and the odd track day, while the Street pad keeps daily refinement and lower dust for normal CLS 55 use. Because the kit drops unsprung mass at the back axle, the rear suspension controls wheel movement more cleanly over broken surfaces, and the painted caliper finish, Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black with a Custom Color in any Pantone available, fills the rear arches properly behind a staggered wheel setup.

About the XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit

This is a rear-axle kit designed around the C219 platform rather than a universal part forced to suit. The headline feature is the two-piece floating disc, whose friction ring rides on an alloy bell and moves heat away from the friction surface faster while carrying less rotating and unsprung mass than a comparable solid casting, clamped by a hollow-body forged caliper as standard. That matters most on a supercharged GT like the CLS 55, which generates serious kinetic energy the brakes have to convert back into heat. The three pad compounds cover the realistic spread of use: Street for refined road driving, Sport for harder fast-road work with more initial bite and occasional track, and Racing for sustained high-temperature track abuse. Painted caliper colour is specified at the point of order, Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone for a small upcharge and premium polished-forged or candy finishes, so the rear corners can be finished to match the rest of the car.
