also the 206 gti 180 has 283mm

rears leave as they are mate youll end up with the rears locking up all the time with bigger brakes

283s are the biggest diameter i would go for and they will perform very well

they will fit under 15s yes

i have gti-6 brakes with normal discs and pads and they are awesome, sooo much better than vtr/s brakes.
