You just run the 406 brembo pads. i know you can run alot of discs with these, i usually run xantia v6 discs 288mm but gti180 discs are fine. not sure about the 307hdi discs tho?
As for clearance on gti180 wheels i am not , i run 15" pro race 1.2s with no clearance issues

You will need different brake lines with a banjo fitting on for the calipers but other than that they will bolt straight on with your 180 discs
