Before I start the return process…

I ordered front and rear rotors/brake pads from Amazon (Detroit Axle brand). Before I start the return process, I am assuming these pads (photos below) are the wrong ones?

The first photo is the product, the second photo is of the pads/clips that I received. I am going to assume the rotors are good, since one set is slightly larger than the other (rear and front), just the wrong pads?

Also, I assume the pads in the front are identical to the pads in the rear? If so, I have four brand new pads sitting in my garage, in which case I could just purchase four more pads and still be out hundreds of dollars less than taking it somewhere while also avoiding the return process…

I would just pop a wheel and a caliper off and see, what makes you think they are wrong, just the pictures?

IMG_2313.jpeg The top pad is what they sent me, the bottom pad is one I already have. After watching a video, I think the pads they sent me are correct for the rear, they just sent me two sets of rear pads instead of a set for the front and a set for the back.

I think I assumed all pads were identical for the front and the back…

If that's the case I'd contact their customer support and tell em to send you the correct pads

They will let you know if they want the wrong ones back

Fronts are normally larger than the rears
