Brembo brakes


I found a set of front 4 piston Brembo calipers and stock rotors at the junk yard on a s430. I tried to put them on my ‘99 e320, the caliper look like it’s gonna work but the rotors not gonna. The diameter is 13” and that seems fine, the offset is too big and the back of the rotor is hitting the dust shield way before it sits on the hub. (Even with dust shield removed, the rotor would hit the lower ball joint before sitting on the hub) What is the correct rotor? What would it come off of so I can look at the junk yard? Thanks in advance!

You will probably need 330 mm rotors from an SLK32

Pics of when I had that setup

Are those the rotors you used? Are there any others that will work? I’d like to find a set at the junk yard if possible.
THANKS for your help!
I attached

a pic of the rotors I got and marked the problem in red. It’s the thickness, needs to be thinner.
