mk3 astra gsi, calibra and cavi at a guess. 1.6 corsa brakes are smaller but unsure of exact size.

^ correct. 2.0 Brakes have a larger piston too.

Loads of stuff have the 256x24mm brakes though.

are 15" rims okay with the 256 discs ?

I know 256 is 25.6cm which is about 10 inces, just wondered for the cooling as well

The Corsa GSI and Sport come from the factory with 14" wheels over 256's, so 15's will be fine. I ran 288's with 15's, but never had any problems with cooling.

Yeah 256mm brakes fit under 14s but not all of them. Certain nova alloys and steelies dont
