Brake Conversion

Hi,
have a series 1 base model 1.1 that am looking to upgrade the anchors on.
Wondering what the easiest conversion would be based on rolling on 15s.
Will it suffice running disks up front and hubs on the rear based on engine conversation planned as 1.4 16v or would it be better for disks all round? Any issues I should be aware of ?
Cheers

if you have the later VWII style callipers with solid discs you can just fit the GTi vented discs and pads as these go straight on.

the only other thing I would say is that brake fluid should be changed every 2 years not 3 and should be done with either a vac bleeder or the old skool pumping pedal way as pressure bleeders can and do put very tiny air bubbles into the fluid which can give a slightly vague pedal.
