Rotor mod help needed

Ordered a set of x-drilled Stillen rotors for my 95 max which was supposed to have a model number of NIS4000. Well, i didn't check the rotors right away, and the got shelved for a while. Finally got around to dusting them off to put on the car. I find out that they sent me the wrong ones. The ones they sent me were NIS5400 which is for the 02+ Altima, and the 01-03 Maxima. I would have sent them back, but they are no longer a Stillen dealer so i'm sort of stuck with these.
The rotor is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch larger in diameter and wont let the caliper mount back up. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work? Don't want to spend a fortune on it, but figured maybe there were some brackets that could be made, used, or something.

The best thing to do is to just sell them and buy yourself the right rotors for your car.

Another option you have is to perhaps have the rotors milled down - don't know how much that would cost though.

I suppose you may be able to build a custom braket and all that, but it's proabably not worth the time and money involved. For that cost you could probably just go buy two new brembo rotors from the current group deal.

List them in the 5th gen forum. Someone there will probably buy them from you.
