XYZ Racing Hollow Rear Brake Kit — Volvo S60 MK2 (2010-2018)

The S60 MK2 carries its mass well forward, and on Volvo’s front-biased P3 saloon the rear axle is the quieter partner – right up until you load it under trail braking and the standard rear discs begin to glaze. This rear big brake kit for the Volvo S60 MK2 (2010-2018) addresses exactly that, adding thermal headroom and bite to an axle the factory set up for refinement rather than repeat heavy stops.

XYZ Racing’s hollow rear brake kit pairs lightened discs with a multi-piston caliper to restore braking balance on a heavy executive saloon. It is aimed at owners running hard fast-road miles or the occasional track session who want the back axle to keep pace with a front end that has usually already been upgraded.

What this big brake kit does for your 2010-2018 Volvo S60 MK2

The first thing you notice is a firmer, more progressive rear contribution under braking – the confidence to stay on the pedal deeper into a corner without the tail feeling light. The hollow-vane disc construction sheds rotating and unsprung mass, which sharpens how quickly the rear wheels respond and eases the load passed into the dampers. On a saloon this size, the larger disc area and greater pad volume translate to far less fade down a descending B-road or across a hot session, so pedal feel stays consistent instead of turning long and soft. Three pad compounds – Street, Sport and Racing – let you match the kit to how hard you actually drive.

About the Hollow Rear Brake Kit

The Hollow name refers to the disc itself: the two-piece floating discs are hollow-vane and lightened to cut rotating mass while raising the surface area available to shed heat, and they are supplied as a matched left-and-right pair. A larger-diameter disc paired with a multi-piston caliper lifts the kit’s overall thermal capacity, which is what keeps the pedal firm when a standard rear setup would already be cooking. The caliper is hollow-cast as standard, with a Hollow Racing upgrade for sustained track temperatures that drops the dust cover, is rated to 1000C and carries a two-year warranty. The kit is offered with three pad compounds – a Street compound for quiet, low-dust everyday driving, a Sport compound for harder road use, and a Racing compound built to survive sustained track temperatures. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and braided lines keep the pedal firm under heat. Calipers are finished in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with Custom Color in any Pantone, polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold or Polished Silver, and candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red or Orange, so the upgrade reads as deliberate behind an open wheel. It is a bolt-on rear fitment designed to complement and rebalance against an uprated front brake setup.
