XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Peugeot 407 (2004-2010)

The 407 was a more comfort-oriented successor to the 406, and the factory braking calibration reflected that priority. For owners pushing one of the heavier variants, the 2.7 V6 HDi biturbo most particularly, the front axle is simultaneously steering, finding traction, and stopping the car. Under sustained or repeated hard use the standard hardware shows exactly what it was optimised for: the lighter, less demanding end of the 407 range.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit addresses that gap directly. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport, and Racing, let 407 owners match the friction material to how the car is actually driven rather than accept a setup calibrated for the median buyer. The kit covers the front axle as a matched pair, left and right, with two-piece floating discs, braided lines, and a forged caliper.

What this brake kit does for your 2004-2010 Peugeot 407

The 407 range spans a wide gulf in engine character and front-axle load, from the lighter four-cylinder petrol saloons through to the diesel V6 biturbo carrying substantially more mass over that driven front end. Across the range, front brake performance comes down largely to how quickly heat leaves the disc between deceleration events. The hollow-vane disc cuts rotating mass, reducing the unsprung weight penalty at the nose and keeping the front suspension sharper through corners than a heavier upgraded unit would allow. The larger swept area spreads heat across more surface, so the pedal stays consistent through sustained stops and long descents where standard 407 hardware on the heavier variants begins to fade. Two-piece floating disc construction lets the friction ring expand and cool independently of the alloy bell, which is what keeps that consistency lap after lap.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

XYZ Racing’s hollow-vane construction removes material from the disc body to reduce rotating mass without compromising the rigidity needed through repeated hard stops, and the forged caliper is hollow-bodied as standard to keep weight down at the corner. Street compound is the quiet, low-dust road default; Sport adds bite and heat range for fast-road work with the occasional track day; Racing is the full track compound for sustained high-temperature use. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and serious track users can step the caliper up to the Hollow Racing build, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty.

Included painted caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost. A Custom Color in any Pantone is available, and premium polished-forged finishes (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy finishes (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange) take the visible hardware through the wheel spokes further still.

Fitment for the Peugeot 407 (2004-2010)

This kit fits Peugeot 407 saloon, estate, and coupé variants built between 2004 and 2010. Confirm the original front disc specification on your particular variant before ordering, as the 407 ran different factory brake packages across engine grades, and caliper clearance is determined by matching the correct disc diameter.
