Ok after waiting for over 4 months for my Stoptech brakes i got them today and they dont FIT! for whatever reason the rotor is not centered on the caliper. I am at wits end as to the problem. I have an Altezza and ordered it for a IS300 but the suspention and every other part other than the engine and tranny is exactly the same. I have emailed Stoptech and hopefully they can offer me some insight. Barring that what are my choices here? Can i space out the rotor witha 2.5mm spacer of something? Washers? should i try to get the braket machined? I am beyond disapointment...

after looking into it im pretty sure they sent me the wrong rotors, or rotor hats anyway cause they have 2 different kits, one pushes the caliper and rotor outboard a bit. i think i got a mixed set...its the onlything that makes a bit of sense..
