as my car will be having Gti calipers fitted but want a good decent brake set to go with it.

you need to know whether you got the lucas calipers or bosch calipers
bosch

then most likely you need the 266x22 disc, not the one in your link

The reason I ask is I have a horrible grinding noise when I brake. Only happens for first half mile then goes. Sounds like coming from the back, and the handbrake is 10 clicks, which makes it sound like brake adjustment or worn shoes. Don't fancy stripping only to find I have to rebuild to go get some new shoes to come back and fit them. Might as well have them ready.
