I believe that the standard upgrade kit is the Cosworth 887/888 kit, which i understand is 283mm and still fits under 15 inch wheels. But you need to check that.
There's a well known Dutchman who sells it, and I imagine there are other sources, plus helpful threads on here.

Not had that one myself.

It all depends on what you plan to do with your car as to whether the upgrade under 15 inch wheels will suit your purpose.
I went for a bigger upgrade, which I have under 17 inch wheels, but I do track days and needed brakes with plenty of stopping power as well as no fade.
And the lower profile tyres that you have to have with 17 inch wheels are better for a stiff ride on track.
I have to say i was perfectly happy with the standard dolls house tea saucers for road use, they worked fine despite looking tiny, but they were slightly inadequate on track.
