Hi all, I'm trying to find the correct brake parts for my Subaru WRX SL 2006 (Hawkeye). Everything is stock apart from aftermarket discs and pads.

I have these discs (Brembo 294mm diameter):

With these pads:

(parts not purchased from these places - links just given for convenience, part no's match)

Which seems to be what various parts recommenders and specialists suggest, but the fit is really bad (pictures attached). The pads poke out above the discs which leaves them lipped and makes everything shake and get hot under braking. Has anyone else experienced this? Do I have the wrong parts or do people just live with it? I'm reluctant to get this kind of stuff directly from Subaru because it's a little pricey for bits that are changed frequently.

Obviously some thing not right. Take a picture of the caliper itself.

Sure, pic below. let me know if it's helpful to have the wheel off or a specific angle

They're stock, but for web ref, I think they're the same as these:
