Caliper render for this kit:

The third-generation RAV4 carries its mass high and well forward, so when you brake hard the front axle takes the brunt of the load, and the factory front discs were only ever sized for gentle family duty. The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit for the Toyota RAV4 (XA30) attacks that exact weakness, replacing the standard front setup with larger discs and a bigger caliper to give the heaviest-working axle the swept area it should have had from the start.
This is a front big brake kit, a matched pair for the front axle, aimed at owners who actually lean on the XA30’s capability: towing, fully laden motorway runs, long alpine descents, the situations where a stock RAV4’s front brakes run out of thermal headroom first and the pedal starts to go long. More disc and a stiffer caliper keep that from happening.
What this big brake kit does for your 2005-2012 Toyota RAV4 (XA30)
On a tall, front-heavy crossover the change is felt immediately at the pedal. The larger front discs give stronger initial bite and far more resistance to fade once heat builds, so a loaded RAV4 hauls down from speed repeatedly without the soft, lengthening pedal the original brakes develop. Pad compound is your choice: Street for quiet, low-dust everyday road use, Sport for harder fast-road driving and the odd track day, or Racing for the most demanding work, so you match the bite and temperature window to how you actually drive. Behind the wheels, the caliper can be finished in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color or a premium finish available if you want to make more of it.
About the Hollow front brake kit
The Hollow front brake kit is a bolt-on front upgrade built around an enlarged two-piece floating disc and a hollow-body performance caliper. The disc design sheds weight from the rotating front assembly while opening up cooling, which matters on a vehicle as heavy as the XA30, and the floating bell lets the rotor manage heat expansion cleanly. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price. The kit is offered with three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, so the same hardware covers a daily-driven RAV4 through to one used hard on track or for sustained heavy braking. Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black; a Custom Color in any Pantone is £150, and premium finishes add polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver plus candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Centre bells upgrade to two-tone anodizing in five colours or titanium, and a Hollow Racing caliper rated to 1000C is available for hard track duty. The kit reads as a clean factory-plus upgrade or a deliberate statement behind the alloys.
Fitment for the Toyota RAV4 (XA30) (2005-2012)
This kit is built for the XA30-chassis Toyota RAV4 across the 2005 to 2012 model years and fits the front axle only as a left-and-right pair; the rear brakes are retained. Confirm your RAV4 is the XA30 generation before ordering so the caliper bracket and disc sizing match your hubs.

Choosing your spec
Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.
Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing
Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.
Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.
Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing
Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.
Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish
Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).
Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.
Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).


Centre bells
The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
