XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Mercedes Benz E CLASS W212 E 350 (2009-2016)

The W212 E 350 carries the better part of 1.7 tonnes on a comfort-first brief, and its factory rear brakes were specified to match: untroubled on a long motorway haul, far less happy when a heavy executive saloon is scrubbed off speed again and again. The XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz E Class W212 E 350 (2009-2016) goes straight at that limitation, adding thermal capacity and consistent bite at the axle that does the quieter work of keeping this car settled.

On a front-engined saloon of this mass, the rear axle earns its keep stabilising the car as weight pitches forward under braking. This rear big brake kit pairs lightweight hollow-vane discs with a fixed caliper and a choice of pad compound, so the back end keeps doing its job whether the E 350 is loaded for a continental run or being pressed along a give-and-take B-road.

What this big brake kit does for your 2009-2016 Mercedes Benz E Class W212 E 350

The hollow-vane disc construction trims rotational and unsprung mass at each rear corner, which sharpens how quickly the brakes respond and helps the W212’s softly sprung rear stay composed mid-stop. A fixed-caliper design clamps more evenly than the original sliding setup, so pedal feel stays firm as temperatures climb on a long descent or a heavy braking zone. The three pad compounds let you match the car to its use: Street for everyday driving, Sport for harder fast-road work and the odd track day, and Racing for sustained high-heat sessions. For a saloon this heavy, that extra fade resistance is the difference between a pedal that stays where you put it and one that goes long after repeated stops.

About the Hollow rear big brake kit

XYZ Racing’s Hollow brake kit takes its name from its vented, two-piece floating disc design, which removes material through the vane structure to cut weight and open up surface area for cooling. The discs run inside a fixed caliper that replaces the W212’s standard floating arrangement, giving more even pad contact and a more progressive bite. The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use, rated to 1000C and warranted for two years. Pad compound is specified when you order: Street, Sport or Racing, so the kit can be set up for a daily-driven E 350 or one that sees regular hard use. Caliper finish is offered in the included 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 to suit the car. Supplied as a matched pair, everything is sized to sit behind the factory-fit wheel package, so the upgrade is about braking performance rather than show. It is a bolt-on path to better heat management at the rear axle without re-engineering the rest of the car.
