Default Issue with rotors...size...

Hey guys, I recently purchased some replacement drilled/slotted rotors to replace my 5 year old ones.

I got them, everything seemed fine, until my friend made a comment..."something doesn't look right."

We looked closely, and, well....here is the problem.
*These are both front rotors, with the same diameter, thickness, etc...but look...

Rotor#1


Rotor#2


Now, I've worked on a lot of hondas in my day, but have never seen rotor hats that were different sizes. Is this normal, or do I have a problem and need to contact the vendor?

Thanks for your help!

If you have your old rotors measure the offsets before you call so that you know what you really need. If not, I can measure the spare rotors that I have in the garage for you.

Good luck.
Yea, my rotors are still on my car, which isn't nearby. I figured. Crap, guess I gotta email the vendor tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

Spoke to the vendor today. They said it was probably a mis-box at the factory. They asked that I ship them back the wrong ones, and they will ship me the correct ones. They will also refund me the shipping. I guess it's as good as it's gonna get.
