Default 300mm brakes vs 322mm. Is the extra 22mm worth it?

Ive been looking around for some brake upgrade options for the ute for a while as it still has the standard 287mm disc setup. I was keen on the BF> setup which takes things up to 322mm but the catch is I only want to buy the calipers and lines - not the rotors and pads which seem to be a part of all the deals. I work in auto retail so getting those bits nice and cheap isnt a big problem hence I dont want to buy them with the calipers.

I am seeing a lot of 300mm BA/BF brake calipers available though and I'm now wondering if that extra 22mm is going to make a major difference? I have previously had the 322mm brakes on 2 cars and was happy with them, but just wondering if I might chuck the 300mm ones on the current AU and see how it goes.

What does everyone think?
