Is this the 10.3"/9.45" to 11.1"/10.2" swap? I'm not familiar with the US models...

What do you mean by "how much of a difference?" Are you talking size, braking distance, feel, parts compatibility, etc?

With good pads and good rotors you'll be able to out-brake your tires any day. It'll more than likely be more brake than you'll ever need on the street.
