XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Peugeot 508 (2010-2018)

The first-generation 508 made a credible case for Peugeot in the executive sector, and in GT trim it genuinely delivered. What it never quite got right was the front brake specification, hardware shared across the PSA platform family and calibrated for everyday comfort rather than sustained hard driving in a car that, across its heavier variants, sits above 1,400 kg. On a front-wheel-drive car of this mass, that distinction matters.

This XYZ Racing front big brake kit addresses the gap directly. The 508 SW estate, heavier again than the saloon, puts particular stress on the front axle under repeated braking, and owners who use the car the way its GT calibration suggests they might will recognise where the factory hardware runs out of headroom. The kit fits the front axle as a matched left and right pair.

What this brake kit does for your 2010-2018 Peugeot 508

Two-piece floating front discs improve thermal management over the standard items, and heat dissipation is where most factory fitments on executive-class cars first show their limits under pressure. The three pad compounds give the kit a genuine range: Street is the quiet, low-dust default for buyers who want improved feel without altering their daily driving; Sport adds bite and heat range for those mixing motorway miles with spirited B-road use; Racing is the track compound for track days or hillclimbs where fade resistance under sustained hard braking is a real requirement. The hollow-vane disc design keeps rotating mass down, so the suspension stays composed under the heavy weight transfer that a loaded executive saloon generates at the nose.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

XYZ Racing’s front kit centres on a two-piece floating disc with a hollow-vane friction ring, a design that manages disc temperatures more effectively than the standard-section items fitted from the factory and lets the ring expand independently of the alloy bell. The compound range, Street, Sport, and Racing, covers the realistic spread of use for a 508 owner who wants more from the front end without committing to a full motorsport build. The forged caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price.

Included painted caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, and Anodized Black at no extra cost. A Custom Color in any Pantone is available, plus premium polished-forged finishes (Titanium, Polished Gold, Polished Silver) and candy finishes (Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red, Candy Orange). As a front-axle kit, the package concentrates the upgrade on the axle that handles the majority of braking load on any front-wheel-drive car.

Fitment for the Peugeot 508 (2010-2018)

This kit covers the first-generation Peugeot 508 across the complete production run from 2010 to 2018, including the saloon, SW estate, and hatchback body styles across the EMP2 platform, petrol and diesel variants, GT-specification cars included.
