XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Peugeot 3008 (2008-2016)

The first-generation 3008 asks more of its front brakes than almost any Peugeot before it. Carrying north of 1,400kg in typical diesel spec, heavier still in 2.0 HDi or HYbrid4 trim, with its weight bias loaded onto the front axle, the factory stoppers were sized to match PSA’s standard brake bias rather than the demands of a car that many owners actually push. The XYZ Racing front big brake kit gives those front corners something more substantial to work with.

Supplied as a matched left-and-right pair of larger front discs and forged calipers, with three pad compounds, this is not a one-profile upgrade. Street suits the crossover’s touring brief, Sport sharpens initial bite without a cold-bite compromise, and Racing brings genuine fade resistance for the sustained, repeated braking of track day use or mountain-road driving that the 3008’s underpinnings handle better than the shape implies.

What this brake kit does for your 2008-2016 Peugeot 3008

The 3008’s front axle does the heavy lifting when it counts. A heavier, higher-riding platform transfers more weight forward under braking than a lower-slung hatchback, and the OEM spec reflects a compromise built around cost, longevity and modest fade margins rather than repeated hard stops. The hollow-vane disc design improves heat dissipation compared to solid equivalents, reducing the thermal soak that causes pedal fade during back-to-back stops on a loaded motorway run or a tight B-road session. The two-piece floating disc keeps the friction ring flat as it heats and trims rotating and unsprung mass off the front corners, which a tall, heavy crossover feels through both pedal and steering.

Three pad compounds match the kit to use. Street is the quiet, low-dust default. Sport gives a sharper initial bite than OEM without the dust and noise that makes a harder pad antisocial on the daily. Racing is for drivers who know their brake fluid will see temperatures the factory spec was never designed to handle. Braided stainless lines come with the kit to keep the pedal firm under load.

About the Hollow Brake Kit

The disc uses a hollow-vane internal geometry that promotes airflow through the disc body, bleeding heat that would otherwise soak into the caliper and degrade fluid. The caliper is a hollow-body forged unit as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade that removes the dust cover, carries a 1000C rating and a two-year warranty for drivers running sustained circuit temperatures.

Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, mean the same hardware serves the car from urban commuting through sustained fast-road use to track-day duty without swapping the entire setup. Painted caliper colours are included at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black, sitting cleanly against the 3008’s alloy choice through the spokes. A Custom Color in any Pantone shade is available for £150, with premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver and candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, with a two-tone centre bell in five anodized colours or titanium selectable at checkout.

Fitment for the Peugeot 3008 (2008-2016)

This front brake kit is built specifically for the first-generation Peugeot 3008, covering the full 2008 to 2016 model run ahead of the platform change at MK2. The 3008 ran different brake package tiers across its model life, so confirm your existing front caliper specification before ordering. Verifying your current disc diameter against your car’s spec sheet ensures the correct fitment.
