Default Can I replace stabdard brake rotors on 2011 XF with supercharged rotors?

Hi
I have a need to replace all my brakes on my 2011 XF 3.0L petrol. I ordered the rotors online but have ordered Supercharged in error. They have been delivered and cost of returning them is not worth it.
The rotors I should have ordered are 326mm (12.83") diameter x 30mm (1.18") thick.
The supercharged has a 355mm diameter x 32mm thickness.

I have the correct rotors for the rear.
I have 18" tyres on.
Any suggestions?

Yes and no.

Yes, they will fit on the hub, but not unless you get the caliber, caliber bracket, and backing dust shield.

And then you have to worry about then fitting inside the dish of hw wheel you have.

Best to buy a new set of rotors and sell yours locally.

Thanks 10 XF Premium
Yes. As I suspected. Not worth having to replace the calipers as well.
Stupid of me to not check compatibility correctly first. The compatibility chart said they will fit the 2012 XF but not the 2011.
Thanks for your help.

No shame in getting it wrong.

There are so many sizes and combinations across the XF motor/trim range that you really cannot trust the computer/e-tailer suggestions.

You have to actually measure yours and call and make sure they are sending the correct parts.
