Best option is to change brain first.

assuming youre going smaller wheels with chunky tyres? just stick with 16" and use the OE caliper/disc setup. 4" will look too high though - and if doing so then diff between a 15 & 16 wheel is minimal in terms of asthetics

plenty of examples on your side of the pond of it on - and probably worth while asking on https://forums.nasioc.com/

lift kits arent big thing over here

I think you'll always struggle to get reasonable brakes under 15" rims although some gravel spec options I believe do fit over the stock 4 pots. Very few though and what's available is likely to be expensive.
