Default Rotors don't fit

I ordered so rotors off of eBay and put them on last night but my fronts were cut wrong or something. They fit but when I tried to spin the tire it was locked. I took them off and saw that it was hitting on the inside of the rotor once the tire was put on. Anyone else ever have this happen? Contacted the company and they are sending me a new set.

did you order the right kind? RWD & AWD versions have different rotors.

Its the rwd rotors, you have Awd car. The rwd rotors dont have enough hub clearance for the awd hub. Send em back

Definitely have the wrong rotors on hand. Before anyone bashes eBay. We've used tons of rotors off eBay for some of our dealership vehicles and have never had complaints and/or fitment issues. Just send em back, you will have to pay shipping probably though both ways. So thats a loss.

I did order AWD rotors, but the front just didn't work. They are sending me a new front set and are not asking for the front set that I have back so I can't really complain. It's just holding me up from putting my wheels on.
