XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Mercedes Benz E CLASS W211 E 240 (2003-2009)

The W211 E-Class is a heavy rear-drive executive saloon, and its rear axle does quiet work right up until you ask it to haul that mass down from a motorway cruise more than once in quick succession. That is where a tired or undersized factory rear setup starts to feel vague. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz E Class W211 E 240 rebuilds the back end of the system with more thermal headroom and a firmer, more predictable pedal.

This is a rear-axle kit, so it is about balance and stamina rather than outright stopping power. On a car like the E 240, with its modest V6 output and softly sprung touring character, the gain owners notice most is consistency: a rear end that keeps biting through repeated stops instead of going long and wooden.

What this brake kit does for your 2003-2009 Mercedes Benz E Class W211 E 240

Fit this to your W211 E 240 and the first thing you feel is a more linear rear contribution under braking, which steadies the car’s attitude when you trail off speed into a roundabout or a downhill bend. The hollow-vane disc design sheds heat that a standard rear rotor would soak and hold, so fade arrives later on long descents and back-road runs. Pad compound is your lever here: Street for quiet everyday town and motorway use, Sport for keener fast-road bite and the odd track day, and Racing for sustained hard driving where heat is the real enemy. Across all three the result is a rear axle you can lean on without second-guessing it.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow Rear Brake Kit takes its name from its lightened, vented two-piece floating disc, which trades dead mass for airflow and heat dissipation across the rotor face. Paired with a fixed caliper, it gives the rear axle a stiffer, more repeatable response than a sliding-caliper factory arrangement under load. The caliper is a hollow-body design as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. The kit is offered with three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, so you can match the bite and operating temperature window to how the car is actually used. Calipers come finished in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone shade and premium polished-forged or candy finishes available, so the upgrade reads as deliberate behind the wheels rather than an aftermarket afterthought. It is a bolt-on refresh of the rear corners, supplied as a matched pair and sized for the W211’s kerb weight rather than borrowed from a lighter platform.
