problem with floatin rotors and akebono

The rotor disc appears to be the right diameter, but the hat seems to wrong sized or design....almost feels like it’s a R35 hat mating to an 355mm AP rotors....

Yes they are from AP the rotors all the dimenions are Ok, except the center cap that that hits the caliper(the oem disc doesn't go that far as there's no center cap), the factory already checked it with all the mesures and they ended saying it's wrong, and the only way to fit the rotors are machining the caliper or changing the caliper.
They checked it and the hub can't be smaller so there's no fix at it.
So i guess i will need to return the discs.
