XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Holden COMMODORE (2006-2013)

On a VE-era Commodore the rear axle does more work than most owners credit. This is a 1,700kg-plus rear-driver that loads its mass rearward under trail braking and squats hard on corner exit once the V8 is lit, so the back brakes spend their life managing a heavy car that wants to rotate. The XYZ Racing rear brake kit for the Holden Commodore (2006-2013) targets that back end specifically, adding thermal capacity and a firmer, more predictable pedal exactly where the factory rear setup starts to go soft.

This is a rear-only upgrade for cars that already get driven hard, track days, fast-road work, the occasional skid pad, where the rear brakes need to keep pace with the fronts instead of overheating and unsettling the balance mid-corner. Pad compound runs from a quiet Street mix through Sport to full Racing, so the kit scales with how the Commodore is actually used.

What this brake kit does for your 2006-2013 Holden Commodore

After fitment you feel it most under repeated heavy braking: the rear stays consistent across successive stops rather than fading and forcing the fronts to do everything. On a heavy rear-drive Commodore that translates to a more stable car into the corner, less rear lock-up nervousness, and a pedal that holds its bite when the discs are hot. Choosing the Racing compound gives you the temperature window for sustained circuit sessions, while Street and Sport keep noise and dust sensible for a car that still does the daily run. Larger rear rotor and caliper capacity also helps a Commodore that tows or carries weight, where the standard rears are quickly out of their depth.

About the Rear Brake Kit

The rear brake kit is XYZ Racing’s bolt-on big brake upgrade for the back axle, supplied as a matched pair of two-piece floating discs and calipers built to add rotor and caliper capacity well beyond the standard Commodore hardware. The rotors run internal hollow vanes that trim unsprung and rotating mass, where extra weight blunts both braking response and ride quality, and they come drilled or slotted at the same price. Three pad compounds are offered: Street for quiet road manners, Sport for harder fast-road duty, and Racing for sustained track temperatures, so one caliper and disc combination covers very different jobs. The hollow-body caliper is standard, with an optional Hollow Racing upgrade for serious track use that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. Included painted finishes are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a custom Pantone colour at £150, plus premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange, which counts on a Commodore running larger aftermarket wheels that leave the rear calipers fully visible. This rear kit is there to restore brake balance once a front big brake setup has pushed bias forward.
