A smaller rolling radius will increase acceleration, use a comparison site to see the difference.

For wheel and caliper clearance you're probably going to have to test fit and see.
I potted an S reg 200sx on the A1 today. It's been ages since I saw one of those, my mate had one when we were doing our apprenticeship in the early nineties 😳.
Also saw a Meg 250 but nobody cares about Renaults 😂.
That was when I was young, car was a 93 and I bought it in 97. I had Walkers tune it so it had 238bhp at the wheels. Doing a tank of 4* a week Just to work and back (8 miles 😂) so I don't want to imagine how expensive one is to run these days.
@MrBlonde is toying with selling his 182.
I actually saw a pair of mine for sale recently and they've held up very well considering I made them in 2019 😯.
Just realised they are the aluminium ones too!
Yep they do look cool. What wheels are you running @Rob7655 ? Disc size won't make much difference with standard 182 wheels. Unfortunately I don't have a decent pic of mine with the Turini's on.
No. The pms brackets don't remove any material off the face as the bracket fits into the counterbore machined into the caliper. It's all to do with thread depth on the bracket, some noobs on Facebook made some that sit on the caliper face and the bolt screws into the bracket but you only had 5mm...
You'd need to space them out 10mm and the bores are only 11 deep so you could only do it with a big washer and then location is by the bolt and it's still sat on what's left ot the caliper mounting face.
Best thing to do is stick with 280 discs or sell the calipers and brackets and buy new for...
