is there any advantages to the 305mm v6 pachage to that of the 288mm v6 package?
also would the 288mm ebc disc be batter than the plain 305mm disks?

Don't bother with EBC disks. Poor quality.

Bigger disk means more surface area which means better cooling. Also, as the caliper is futher away from the center of the disk you get greater moment from the brake which makes the brakes more powerful - this is quite minimal though as the size difference is minimal.

GM Disks all the way too

and no, Black Diamond are for people who read Max Power. Nothing comes close to GM unless you are spending a fair bit of wedge
