The front kit which is twin piston calipers and has 330mm slotted rotors is $2200 with exchange uprights but on the rear they have a 299mm disc anyway so just fit slotted rotors and better pads which would be from about $300 to $500 depending on brand.The front kit takes 2 to 3 weeks to put together thanks

The offset isn't changed so they will still rub but on some occasions where there is a grease nipple hanging out of the top ball joint the tyres will rub on that so they have to be removed and put plugs in.

Will the 330mm brake upgrade fit inside the standard 15" alloy?

It will not fit.

You will need at least a set of 17" wheels to clear the discs/calipers.
