Caliper render for this kit:

The W210 E-Class is a heavy car by any measure, over 1,600 kg for the E320 saloon, and a nose-heavy platform that places significant demand on the front brakes under hard deceleration. Mercedes calibrated the standard setup for comfort first: progressive pedal feel, minimal noise, long pad life. That works well for motorway cruising. It works less well when the car is driven with real intent on a fast A-road, or pushed through a track day session where brake temperatures climb past what road pads were designed to handle.
This XYZ Racing front brake kit is a direct-fit upgrade for the W210 E320, a pair of larger calipers and discs designed to raise the capability of the front axle to match what the car is capable of when driven hard. The hollow-vane disc addresses the heat management problem where the stock setup starts to struggle. You set the specification when you order from the options above.
What this brake kit does for your 1995-2003 Mercedes Benz E CLASS W210 E 320
The hollow-vane disc runs cooler than a standard vented rotor under repeated hard stops, as increased internal surface area and airflow through the rotor body accelerate heat transfer away from the friction face, which matters when a heavy executive saloon is decelerated from motorway speeds in quick succession. Three pad compounds let the setup match the actual use case: Street suits everyday driving with quiet, low-dust bite better than OE; Sport raises the fade threshold for spirited fast-road use; Racing handles the sustained high temperatures of circuit sessions, where road pads begin to glaze.
The lighter two-piece floating disc also trims rotating and unsprung mass at the front corners. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price.
About the XYZ Racing Front Brake Kit
The hollow-vane disc at the core of this kit manages thermal load differently from a conventional vented rotor. Where a standard vented disc relies on fixed internal vanes for airflow, the hollow construction increases the internal void while reducing rotor mass, both of which let the disc shed heat faster through repeated stops. The disc is two-piece floating, and the caliper is hollow-body forged as standard, fed by braided lines for a firm pedal. Three pad compounds cover the range: Street for road use where improved, low-dust bite is the priority; Sport for fast-road or occasional track work where a higher fade threshold is needed; and Racing for drivers running timed sessions who need pads that operate correctly at sustained elevated temperatures.
Caliper colour is selected at order from the included set of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with Custom Color matching any Pantone for 150 pounds. Premium polished-forged finishes cover Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and the candy range adds Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red and Candy Orange. Centre bells can be two-tone in five anodized colours or titanium, and the optional Hollow Racing caliper, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty, suits serious track use.
Fitment for the Mercedes Benz E CLASS W210 E 320 (1995-2003)
This kit covers the full W210 E320 production run from 1995 to 2003, spanning both the pre-facelift M104 straight-six cars and the post-1999 M112 V6 specification. The W210 platform in saloon configuration is covered across this year range. Confirm your chassis code at order if you are unsure which engine or model-year specification your car falls under.

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.
