Fits Volkswagen PASSAT B7 (2010-2015)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Painted — includedTell us the exact Pantone (PMS) code you want the calipers painted.Polished forgedCandy
Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Volkswagen PASSAT B7 (2010-2015) — 330 mm
330 mm

The B7 Passat carries the bulk of its mass over the front axle, and on a saloon or estate that can be specced well past 1,500kg before passengers and luggage, it is the front brakes that take the punishment. The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit for the Volkswagen Passat B7 (2010-2015) is a front-axle upgrade aimed at owners who ask more of the car than the standard setup was sized for: a remapped 2.0 TSI or TDI, a loaded estate on a long motorway descent, or repeated heavy stops that leave the factory discs fading.

This is a front-axle kit, a matched pair of left and right calipers and two-piece floating discs, so it targets exactly where a nose-heavy front-driver does most of its braking. With three pad compounds to choose from, you set the bite and temperature window to match how the car is actually used rather than accepting a one-size pad.

What this brake kit does for your 2010-2015 Volkswagen Passat B7

The most noticeable change on a heavy B7 is fade resistance under repeated braking, the point where the standard front discs start to feel long and soft after a few hard stops. A larger front kit gives you more thermal headroom, so pedal feel stays consistent on a fast cross-country run or with a caravan or roof load behind you. The two-piece floating disc adds rotor diameter and surface area without piling on rotating mass, and the hollow-vane casting moves air through the disc to clear heat faster than the factory rotor managed. The Sport compound suits a daily B7 that occasionally gets driven hard, while Racing is there for track or sustained high-temperature work. Street keeps cold bite quiet and low-dust for ordinary commuting.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

The Hollow Front Brake Kit is XYZ Racing’s front big brake package, built to add braking capacity without burdening a road car. The caliper body is hollow-cast as standard, shedding weight where it sits unsprung at the wheel, and the two-piece floating disc keeps rotating mass in check as disc size goes up. Painted caliper colours are included at no extra cost: Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black. Want something specific? A Custom Color matched to any Pantone is available, and there are premium polished-forged finishes in Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, plus candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Pad compound is specified separately across Street, Sport and Racing, letting you tune the kit to commuting, fast-road or circuit duty. For serious track work there is a Hollow Racing caliper upgrade, run without a dust cover, rated to 1000C and backed by a two-year warranty. It is sold as a front-only kit, focused on the axle that matters most on this platform.

Fitment for the Volkswagen Passat B7 (2010-2015)

This kit is matched to the Volkswagen Passat B7 across the 2010 to 2015 model years and fits the front axle only, working alongside your existing rear brakes. Confirm your exact build year falls within that span when you order, and select your pad compound, caliper finish, disc style and any centre-bell upgrade to suit your intended use. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and centre bells can be upgraded to two-tone in five anodized colours or titanium at checkout.

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.
