Fits Alfa Romeo 4C (2013-2018)

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.

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.

Carbon fibre tubs do not lie. The 4C’s extraordinary chassis rigidity means what reaches your foot on the brake pedal is an honest account of what is happening at the front axle, which also means that when the factory front calipers start to fade under heat on a demanding road or circuit session, you feel every degree of that deterioration directly.

This XYZ Racing front brake kit for the Alfa Romeo 4C (2013-2018) upgrades the front braking system while preserving the tactile feedback that defines the car, with three pad compounds and a wide choice of caliper finish across road and circuit use.

What this brake kit does for your 2013-2018 Alfa Romeo 4C

Larger front discs add swept area and thermal mass, and the hollow-vane design improves heat dissipation over a conventional plain-faced disc, keeping front-end temperatures in a more consistent range through successive hard stops. On a car as light as the 4C the gain in initial bite and fade resistance is felt in direct proportion to how communicative the chassis already is. Better braking here means the car’s inherent composure arrives earlier in each braking zone, not after you have passed your turn-in point. Two-piece floating discs let the rotor grow with heat without warping against the bell, protecting that feedback as the brakes work harder.

Three pad compounds match the kit to use. Street is the quiet, low-dust default that keeps behaviour progressive on cold mornings. Sport adds bite and heat range for fast road and the occasional track day. Racing handles sustained circuit loading without the pedal softening that appears in a road setup pushed hard. Discs are drilled or slotted at the same price.

About the Hollow Front Brake Kit

Keeping unsprung mass low matters on the 4C. The carbon chassis makes every kilogram at the wheel a quantity the car communicates back to you, so the caliper is a hollow-body forging as standard, shedding weight at the corner while holding clamp stiffness. That avoids dulling what makes the 4C’s front axle feel so alive. For serious circuit use, the optional Hollow Racing caliper deletes the dust cover, is rated to 1000C, and carries a two-year warranty.

Calipers are painted in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black at no extra cost. A Custom Color in any Pantone shade is £150. Premium polished-forged finishes come in Titanium, Polished Gold, and Polished Silver, with candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red, and Orange, finishing cleanly against the 4C’s carbon-intensive bodywork. Centre bells can be upgraded to a two-tone anodized finish in five colours or to titanium, and braided lines firm the pedal. Everything is selectable above when you order.

Fitment for the Alfa Romeo 4C (2013-2018)

This front big brake kit is designed for the Alfa Romeo 4C produced between 2013 and 2018, covering both the Coupe and Spider body variants and supplied as a matched front-axle pair. Confirm your existing front caliper and wheel offset specifications before ordering, as aftermarket wheel fitments can affect arch clearance around a larger caliper body.

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.
