Default best front brake combi for a series 1 with standard wheels

alright folks been thinking for a while for bigger wheels so i can accomendate (spelling) for bigger brakes
im hoping for above 250 brake when my restro series 1 finished but am now thinking of keeping the standard wheels will cozzie front stoppers be up to the job or will i need bigger front brakes and wheels
was thinking of 283 mm cozzie front discs with 4 pots will this fit

Im not too sure if they are the same size or what mate.

I think possibly you may have to use the 2wd discs so it all aligns correctly!
