Question Braided hoses

So I'm going to be replacing 3 out of the 4 calipers on my C70 due to seized bleed nipples, when checking the fronts I noticed on the passenger side the rubber brake hose is pretty worn and is fraying so I'm thinking I may as well upgrade to front braided hoses...

On HEL and Goodridge there's 15" and 16" wheel hoses listed.. as I understand it there's 2 different disc sizes for front brakes on P80 cars? But both use the same calipers? In which case does it matter which hoses I get, if one is longer than the other could anyone direct me to that so it leaves the option to upgrade the discs to the bigger size in future without putting additional strain on the hoses?

Cheers!
