Are E55 and CLS55 brake rotors interchangeable?

I have a 2006 E55 that I put Evosport 2 piece rotors on less than a thousand miles ago . I just picked up a CLS55 that I'm going to build instead of the E, and I was hoping to swap the brake rotors onto the new car.
The E has EvoSport's 390mm upgrade, and the CLS has the 030 package with OEM 380mm. Anybody know for sure before I start taking things apart ?

When you upgrade the E brakes from Evosport, did you change the Calipers...??,

cause the OEM only handle 360mm...!!

The calipers stayed the same on my E, the rotors came with spacers to move the caliper away from the center of the spindle about 10-13mm

In generally; E55 & CLS55 uses the same brakes, but since you have 390mm, that means you have the S65/SL65 calipers,,

most tuning companies upgrade all 55s brakes from the 65s set-up, with different Rotors shape....
